A box, with rectangular sides, base and top is to have a volume of 2 cubic feet. It has a square base. Express the
surface area A of the box in terms of the width w of the base. If the material for the base and top costs 10 dollars/ft2
and that for the sides costs 20 dollars/ft express the total cost C as a function of the width.

The total surface area is 2w² + 8/w, while the total cost is $(20w² + 160/w)

What is volume?

Volume is the amount of space occupied by a three dimensional shape or object.

Let w represent the width of the base and h represent the height. Hence:

w²h = 2

h = 2/w²

The surface area = 2w² + 4(hw) = 2w² + 4(2/w² * w) = 2w² + 8/w

The total cost = 2w² * $10 + (8/w) * $20 = $(20w² + 160/w)

The total surface area is 2w² + 8/w, while the total cost is $(20w² + 160/w)
