A fenced enclosure consists of a rectangle (length L and width 2R) attached to a semicircle with a radius R as pictured below. Note: there is fencing between the rectangular and semi-circular portions. The enclosure is to be built to have a total area (the entire shaded region), A, of 2000 ft2. The cost of the fence is $20/ft for curved sections and $30/ft for straight sections. Analytically (show all of your steps using algebra and calculus in the write up), find the minimum cost to build the fence and the dimensions of the enclosure. Show all equations that you derive and use. This part should be done entirely in the write-up: no coding. It is fine to do this by hand and include a high-resolution picture in the writeup rather than using Equation Editor. Hint: you will need to use two equations in order to find the cost as a function of only R or L. Construct a plot to graphically determine the values of R and L (x-axis) that minimize the total cost (y-axis) of the fence. Using the MIN function, determine the R and L that minimize cost and what that cost is Do your answers in A, B and C all agree? Why or why not?
