Writing Project
You will complete the problem below and produce a write-up of the problem in your own words that should include the following:
1. An introduction to the problem. If done well the reader should know what the problem is and should be interested in its solution.
2. The setup. Any and all variables that will be used in the solution of the problem must be clearly defined.
3. The solution. Any relevant work that leads to the solution should be included. Any obvious steps may be skipped (for example you don't have to show every step of a derivative that you take) but make sure that there is enough there for the reader to understand the process.
4. The conclusion. You must state the solution and interpret your results.

The cost to produce the sides of each container is about 0.2 cents per square centimeter or $0.002 per square centimeter.
