How can I find the change in the surface area of this problem?

I tried finding the different areas of the cylinder.
For its sides, I get: $$A_\mathrm{side}=2\pi rh,$$ for the half sphere: $$A_\mathrm{sphere}=2\pi r^3,$$ for the circle in the bottom $$A_\mathrm{circle}=\pi r^2,$$ for total surface area: $$S=2\pi rh+2\pi r^3+\pi r^2,$$ since $$\frac{dS}{dt}=\frac{\partial{S}}{\partial{r}}\frac{dr}{dt}+\frac{\partial{S}}{\partial{h}}\frac{dh}{dt}.$$ So: $$\frac{dS}{dt}=2\pi\left[-\frac{t}{2}(h+3r^2+r)+6rt\right]\label{1}\tag{1}$$ Given the values $$t=4;\:r(4)=4;\:h(4)=50,$$ when I evaluate \eqref{1} I get: $$\frac{dS}{dt}=-216\pi$$ while the correct answer is $$ \frac{dS}{dt}=-56\pi. $$

Now, what am I doing wrong?
