4. A cargo container (in the shape of a rectangular solid) must have a volume of 480 cubic feet. The bottom will cost $5.00 per square foot and the sides and the top will cost $3.00 per square foot to construct. Use La-Grange multipliers to find the dimensions which minimize the cost of the container.
