Discussion for the paper. Did you find it easy, hard, confusing? A lot of my friends found the last question, question 5 a killer. I don't know which timezone we have, but it was about a cylinder and having to find the x value of the surface area and then differentiating the equation you have, and then having to find the minimum value for the surface area. It was really confusing :bawling:

Honestly, I thought paper 1 was easier. I'm timezone 1. I had trouble with problems 3 and 4 (got half way on both)... 4 was particularly hard for me because I couldn't figure out where to place the tangent line (stupid, I know).
