Answer:
The answer is 3418.1 ft rounded to the nearest tenth.
Step-by-step explanation:
The total volume of the cylinder can be defined by the Area of circular base * Perpendicular height.
The area of the circular base can be calculated as
[tex]\pi \times {r}^{2} [/tex]
where r is the radius of the circular base, which is 8 ft.
The area of the circular base is
[tex]\pi \times {8}^{2} = 64\pi[/tex]
We also know the height of the cylinder is 17 ft.
Hence, the volume of the cylinder is
[tex]64\pi \times 17 = 1088\pi = 3418.0528...[/tex]
This will be rounded up to 3418.1 with the nearest tenth
