X^2 = x + 72 you have a quadratic.
x^2 - x - 72 = 0
(x - 9)*(x + 8) = 0
x = 9 or x = - 8

We have to check this one. One of the answers could be wrong.
9^2 = 9 + 72
81 = 81 This one checks out and is OK.

(-8)^2 = -8 + 72
64 = - 8 + 72 
64 = 64.
Both answers work.

So 4 inches diameter result the radius is 4/2 = 2 inches 

area of base = pir^2 = 3,14*2^2 = 3,14*4 = 12,56 inches squared 

volume = area of base *height 

V = 12,56 *9 = 113,04 so rounded 113,05 inches cubed 

hope this will help you
