profit = revenue-cost
revenue = 20*4πr^2 = 80πr^2
cost = 800*4/3 πr^3 = 3200/3 πr^3
so,
profit = 80πr^2 - 3200/3 πr^3
max profit when
160πr - 3200πr^2 = 0
160πr(1-20r) = 0
r = 1/20 ft
looks like marbles make the most money.
A certain magical substance that is used to make solid magical spheres costs $800 per cubic foot.
