Algebra.Com's Answer #307002 by richard1234(7193)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! We know that, from the constraint, h = 30 - r. Hence, the volume V is\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The derivative is zero when r = 0 or r = 20. Clearly, r = 0 would imply V = 0. It can be checked that r = 20, h = 10 maximizes the volume, which is\r \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " |
