A right circular cylinder of radius r and height h has volume given by V=Ï€r^2h and surface area given by A=2Ï€r^2+2Ï€rh.
A manufacturer must design a cylindrical can that can hold 800Ï€ cubic cm of liquid.
Express the amount of material needed to make the can as a function of its radius, r.
:
Volume

divide both sides by pi


:
Area

replace h with

Cancel r

simplify
amt of material as a function of r
