Water is leaking out of an inverted conical tank at a rate of 0.0109 {\rm m}^3{\rm /min}. At the same time water is being pumped into the tank at a constant rate. The tank has height 9 meters and the diameter at the top is 4.5 meters. If the water level is rising at a rate of 0.24 m/min when the height of the water is 4 meters, find the rate at which water is being pumped into the tank. Must be accurate to the fifth decimal place.
I keep getting 3.0268 but WebWorks will not accept that answer.
