A cylindrical container that is open at the top is to be made from two kinds of material. The material for the side costs 20 pesos per cm? while the material for the base costs 5 pesos per cm?. If the container is to have a volume of 8Tt cm³, what must be its dimensions so that the cost of construction is as small as possible?
