6. A soda company is designing a new can that is more cost efficient. The base of the can costs $0.04/cm2, the top costs $0.08/cm2, and the wall of the can costs $0.03/cm2. If the can must hold 360 mL, what are the dimensions of the can, to the nearest tenth? Determine the minimum cost. (1 mL-1cm3)

A carpenter wants to build a rectangular box with square top and bottom. The material for the bottom costs $20/ft^2, material for the sides costs $10/ft^2, and the material for the top costs $50/ft^2. If the volume of the box must be 5ft^3, then find minimum cost to produce the box.
Coca-Cola wants to minimize the production costs of its cans. Assuming the cans are the shape of a cylinder and that each can needs to hold a volume of about 370 cm3 of Coca-Cola. Use the methods that we worked on in section 3.7 to find the dimensions of the cylinder that minimizes the amount of material used to manufacture a coca-cola can.
An oil refinery is located 1 km north of the north bank of a straight river that is 2 km wide. A pipeline is to be constructed from the refinery to storage tanks located on the south bank of the river 6 km east of the refinery. The cost of laying pipe is $400,000/km over land to a point P on the north bank and $800,000/km under the river to the tanks. To minimize the cost of the pipeline, how far downriver from the refinery should the point P be located? (Round your answer to two decimal places.)
