Expert Solution
part a

An architect uses a cylindrical tube to ship blueprints to a client. Given that the height of the tube plus twice it's radius must be less than 60 cm. 

Let, the height of the tube is h cm and radius of it's base is r cm.

Therefore, h+2r<60. Considering a positive constant α. Then, inequality sign can be converted into equal sign and it becomes h=60-2r-α

Thus, height of the tube h is expressed in terms of radius r by h=60-2r-α
