Answer:
[tex]\large\boxed{V=50\pi\ yd^3\approx157\ yd^3}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula of a volume of a cylinder:
[tex]V=\pi r^2H[/tex]
r - radius
H - height
We have the diameter d = 2r = 5yd ā r = 2.5yd and the height H = 8yd.
Substitute:
[tex]V=\pi(2.5)^2(8)=\pi(6.25)(8)=50\pi\ yd^3\\\\\pi\approx3.14\to V\approx(50)(3.14)=157\ yd^3[/tex]
