    c: 1,335 yd³

    Step-by-step explanation:

    The formula for volume of a cylinder is V = πr²h where r is the radius of the base circle, and h is the height of the cylinder

    We are given r = 5, and h = 17. Plug them in and solve for V ...

    V = π (5²) (17)

    V = π (25) (17)

    V = 425π

    V = 425 (3.14) = 1,334.5 yd³,

    so 1,335 yd³ rounded to the nearest cubic yard
