Question: formula: V ( l , r , R ) = l ( R 2 - r 2 ) . According t o your measurements, the

formula:
V(l,r,R)=l(R2-r2).
According to your measurements, the volume of toilet paper is(to the nearest cubic mm):
V(93,21,56)=,mm3
However, since your initial measurements were only accurate to the nearest mm, the true volume of toilet paper may
be different.
The total differential approximation can be used to estimate how the measured volume V(93,21,56) differs from the
true value ofV(l,r,R)as:
V(l,r,R)~~V(93,21,56)+delVdell(93,21,56)(l-93)+delVdelr(93,21,56)(r-21)+delVdelR(93,21,56)(R-56)
We calculate the partial derivatives (to the nearest integer):
delVdell(93,21,56)=
delVdelr(93,21,56)=
delVdelR(93,21,56)=
Since we measured l,r and Rto the nearest mm,
|l-93|0.5,|r-21|0.5 and |R-56|0.5.
Using the integer approximations above together with the triangle inequality,
|V(l,r,R)-V(93,21,56)||delVdell(93,21,56)||(l-93)|+|delVdelr(93,21,56)||(r-21)|+|delVdelR(93,21,56)||(R-56)|
And so our measured volume V(93,21,56) differs from the true volume by
|V(l,r,R)-V(93,21,56)|,mm3
formula: V ( l , r , R ) = l ( R 2 - r 2 ) .
