Answer:

418.67 ft³

Explanation:

This question is really just asking you to solve for the volume of the object.

Let's identify some shapes that we recognize.

I see a sphere and a cylinder.

First, let's find the volume of a sphere!

V = (4/3) π r³

V = (4/3) π (r=8ft / 2 = 4ft)³

V= 267.95 ft³

Then, let's find the volume of the cylinder!

V= h π r²

V = (12ft) π (r=4ft / 2 = 2ft)²

V= 150.72 ft³

Finally, let's add the two volumes together.

267.95 ft³ + 150.72 ft³ = 418.67 ft³
