Q5 (a) Find the height and radius of the least expensive closed cylinder that has a volume
of 1000cm3. Assume that the materials needed to construct the cylinder are free,
but it costs 80 cents per cm to weld the top and bottom onto the cylinder and to
weld the seam up the side of the cylinder (see diagram below). [10]
(b Find the volume of a solid region R. bounded by the surface f (x, y) = e-x2 and
The planes y = 0, y = x and x = 1. [10]
