Ah yes. You'd have to add those up. So in addition to the already existing cost function add the welding. Now do I take partials and find criticals?

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...
