An open-topped cylindrical can must contain V cm³ of liquid. (A typical can of soda, for example, has V = 355 cm³.) What dimensions will minimize the cost of metal to construct the can? A poster must have a printed area of 320 cm². It will have top and bottom margins that are 5 cm each, and side margins that are 4 cm. What are the dimensions of the poster with the smallest total area?
