Sorry for not adding my work. Here it is so far:
V = b*w*h. Solving for h, h=v*(y*x)^-1
For my cost function c=.9*x*y+.7*2*x*v*(y*x)^-1+.7*2*y*v*(y*x)^-1+50
Simplifyed a bit more here,
c=.9*x*y+1.4v*y^-1+1.4v*x^-1+50
There's a problem with this, I have no included the welding costs...
Homework Statement
"For this project we locate a trash dumpster in order to study its shape and constuction. We then attempt to determine the dimensions of a container of similar design that minimize construction cost."
1. (Already located, measured, and descibed a dumpster found).
