A box with a square base and open top must have a volume of
32000 cm3. We wish to find the dimensions of the box that minimize
the amount of material used.
Find the following:
1. First, find a formula for the surface area of the box in terms
of only x, the length of one side of the square base. [Hint: use
the volume formula to express the height of the box in terms of x.]
Simplify your formula...
A rectangle storage container with an open top should have a
volume of 33 meters^3. The length of its base is 2 times
the width. Material costs for the base are $10/meter^2 and the
material costs for the sides are $22/meter^2. Optimize the costs of
materials (hint minimum cost we are not trying to sell it).
What are the dimensions for the cheapest possible rectangular
box with a volume of 72 cm3 if the material for the bottom costs
$16/cm2, material for the sides costs $2/cm2, and material for the
top costs $20/cm2 ?
