Final answer:
The volume of a cylinder with a radius and height of 18 meters is calculated using the formula V = πr²h. Upon calculation, the correct volume is 18,306.48 cubic meters, rounded to the nearest hundredth.
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the volume of a cylinder, we use the formula V = πr²h, where V is the volume, r is the radius, and h is the height. Using π as 3.14, the radius of 18 meters, and the height of 18 meters, we calculate the volume as follows:
V = πr²h = 3.14 × (18 m)² × 18 m = 3.14 × 324 m² × 18 m = 3.14 × 5,832 m³ = 18,306.48 m³
However, when we round this to the nearest hundredth as requested, the volume of the cylinder is approximately 18,306.48 cubic meters, which is not one of the options provided. There might have been a miscalculation in the question's choices.
