Answer:
Rounded to the nearest cubic unit, the tank can hold 8,139 cubic meters of water.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that a water storage tank has a cylindrical shape, and the base has a diameter of 18 m and the tank is 32 m high, to determine how much water can the tank hold, the following calculation must be performed, knowing that the volume of a cylinder is obtained by multiplying the number pi by the radius squared of the cylinder, and this result by its height:
V = Pi x (radius x radius) x height
Radius = 1/2 diameter = 9
V = 3.14 x (9 x 9) x 32
V = 3.14 x 81 x 32
V = 254.34 x 32
V = 8,138.88
Thus, rounded to the nearest cubic unit, the tank can hold 8,139 cubic meters of water.
