A company needs to manufacture cylindrical cans out of tin, each of which must have both a bottom and a top and a volume of 382cm3. s). How should the company design the cans (i.e. what are the dimensions of the cans) if they want to minimize the cost of constructing them? According to Google, most soup cans have a volume of 382cm3 with 3.25cm andh = dimensions r = 11.51cm. Does this agree with your answer to (a)? If not, give at least one reason why your answer to (a) may not be the best in the "real world".
