Summary Introduction
To determine: The height and diameter that can minimize the surface area of the can.
Non-linear programming (NLP):
Non-linear programming (NLP) is used in complex optimization problems where the objectives or constraints or sometimes both are non-linear functions of the decision variables. A model can be termed as non-linear for more than one reason.

(3) The Elon Company manufactures parts for an aircraft company using three
computerized numerical controlled (CNC) turning centers. The company has to
decide which machines are capable of producing a specific part with design
specifications of 0.0970 inch ± 0.015 inch. The machines have the following
parameters: Machine 1 (x= 0.0995, o = 0.004); Machine 2 ( = 0.1002, o = 0.009);
Machine 3 (x = 0.095, o = 0.005). Determine which machines (if any) can produce
the products within the design specifications.

- A company is refurbishing smartphones out of used smartphones. They are able to produce three different quality levels (Gold, Silver, and Bronze). The revenue for selling x, y, and z units of the respective devices can be calculated as R(x, y, z) = 600x + 400y + 300z – x² – y? – 22. In order to refurbish the devices, they need to run through fine-tuned automated machines and have to pass a final quality check, which is done by employees. The required time for these two processes per quality level and the daily available machine and employee working times are displayed in the following table: machine minutes employee minutes Gold 60 Silver 40 Bronze 30 daily available time 800 100 The company wants to maximize the daily profit while using all available resources.
