Volume of a Cylinder


           A cylindrical container has a radius of eight inches with a height of three inches. Compute how many inches should be added to either the radius or height to give the same increase in volume?

Answer:  Let the change in radius or height be x. then (8) ² (3 + X) = (8 + X) ² (3); X = 16/3
