Optimize it yourself...

1.) You are building a cylindrical barrel in which to put Dr. Brent so you can float him over Niagara Falls. I can fit in a barrel with a volume equal 1 cubic meter. The material for the lateral surface costs $18 per square meter. The material for the circular ends costs $19 per square meter. What are the exact radius and height of the barrel so that cost is minimized?
