Need help with Problem and really confused with plugging the values for MATLAB. Can anyone help with this problem? Really appreciate and will rate if there is explanation. Also, could you upload the matlab code that you use? Thanks!

Q2. A rectangular prism shaped metallic container is to be designed for storage of nuclear waste materials. The profit to be made from constructing the container is proportional to its volume and can be expressed through the factor P which is $50k/m3. Sheet metal processing cost for the 5 faces of the container is proportional to the surface area and can be determined through the cost factor Cashaping which is S2.5k/m2. The final face of the container wil be welded to the container through a specialized MIG welding process having a cost proportional to the length of the weld line. The associated cost factor Cawelding is S7.5k/m. Safety code for nuclear waste containers dictate the average of the three dimensions of the container as 4m. For a maximunm profit, what should be the dimensions? Hint: Use the Hooke and Jeeves algorithm with a starting dimension of 4 m for all sides. A MATLAB program to find a function minimum using the Hooke-Jeeves directional search method can be accessed through the following link: Q2.
