Volume of a R-C-Cylinder is defined as:V = piR^2 H The circumference is the basic eqeuation:C = 2pi*RAccording to the problem, C + H = 30or2pi*R + H = 30 H = 30 - 2pi*Rand volume becomes:V = piR^2 H ---> V = piR^2 (30 - 2pi*R)=30piR^2 - 2pi^2 R^3)To find the one with maximum volume, take the derivative of the volume equation and set equal to zero(and solve for the required R):V' = 60piR - 6pi^2 R^2 = 06piR(10 - pi R) = 06pi*R = 0R = 0, which is not the answer we want...OR(10 - pi * R) = 0R = 10/pi cm...
