Problem

A closed right circular cylinder must hold 500π cm3500\pi\text{ cm}^3 of liquid. Manufacturing the side wall costs 0.030.03 dollars per cm2\text{cm}^2, and each circular end costs 0.060.06 dollars per cm2\text{cm}^2. Shipping adds an additional 0.010.01 dollars per cm2\text{cm}^2 of surface area for every part of the can. What radius rr, in centimetres, minimizes the total cost of one can? (a) 6.3 cm6.3\text{ cm} (b) 5.3 cm5.3\text{ cm} (c) 4.8 cm4.8\text{ cm} (d) 5.0 cm5.0\text{ cm}
