Graph each rational function using transformations.
In Problems 39–56, find the real zeros of f. Use the real zeros to factor f.
In Problems 57– 62, find the real zeros of f. If necessary, round to two decimal places.
Solve the inequality algebraically
A can in the shape of a right circular cylinder is required to have a volume of cubic centimeters. The top and bottom are made of material that costs per square centimeter, while the sides are made of material that costs per square centimeter.
Part (a) Express the total cost C of the material as a function of the radius r of the cylinder.
Part (b): Graph . For what value of r is the cost C a minimum?
