Round to the nearest tenth.
17 ft
8ft
[ ? ) ft3

Answer 1

The answer is 3418.1 ft rounded to the nearest tenth.

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

`\pi * {r}^(2)`

where r is the radius of the circular base, which is 8 ft.

The area of the circular base is

`\pi * {8}^(2) = 64\pi`

We also know the height of the cylinder is 17 ft.

Hence, the volume of the cylinder is

`64\pi * 17 = 1088\pi = 3418.0528...`

This will be rounded up to 3418.1 with the nearest tenth
