3.8 related rates for volume or area problems - back to assignment overview related rates for volume or area problems use related rates to solve problems involving volume question cylindrical can is partially filled with water. the radius of the cylindrical can is 8 inches. the height of the cylindrical can is 9 inches. if the volume of the water is decreasing at a rate of 527 cubic inches per minute, what is the rate, in inches per minute, at which the height of the water is changing when the height of the water is 5 inches? round your answer to the nearest hundredth. (do not include any units in your answer.) remember that the volume of a cylinder is v = pir^2 h. provide your answer below:
