Answer:

dV = ±8π in³

Step-by-step explanation:

You're given the height, radius, and change in radius (the radius error, dr).

You're asked to find the change in volume (error of the volume, dV).

First write down the equation for the volume of a cylinder.

Derive the volume with respect to the radius (dV/dr) so that you can solve for their changes.

Rearrange the equation to solve for dV.

Plug in your given values.
