I am trying to solve it using cylindrical coordinates, but I am not sure whether the my description of region E is correct, whether is the value of r is 2 to 4, or have to evaluate the volume 2 times ( r from 0 to 4 minus r from 0 to 2), and whether is okay to take z from r^2/2 to 8

May I know which method did you use? I have no idea of it, thanks

Shouldn't the boundary of integration be ##\sqrt{2z}## instead of ##2z##?
