An open-top box is to be made so that its width is 4 ft and its volume is 40 ft^3. The base of the box costs $4/ft^2 and the sides cost $2/ft^2.
a. Express the cost of the box as a function of its length L and height H.
b. Find a relationship between L and H
c. Express the cost as a function of H only.
d. Give the domain of the cost function.
E. Use a graphing calculator or computer to approximate the dimensions of the bos having least cost.
Thank you!!!
