Calc 12: Thurs, Apr 11, 2013

Optimization Problems consider how to make one variable the biggest (or smallest) while keeping another variable constrained. For example, what size should a pop can be to use the least amount of aluminum material? Or, what size should your pop can be to pack in as many cans into a single box? Or, what should the cost of production be to maximize your profit margin? And more!

Try problems on page 188, #1-6, 8 :)

Heads up! QUIZ on max/min and concavity on Monday!
