Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
Don't worry about the volume to start with. Just look at the area of the top or bottom.
The hole has a 4 inch diameter
d = 4
r = d/2
r = 2
Area = pi r^2
Area = pi * 2^2
Area = 4 pi
Now find the area of the top (or bottom) if the circle was not there.
L = 8
W = 6
Area = L * W
Area = 8 * 6
Area = 48
Now take away the area of the circle.
Area Top = 48 - 4 * pi
Area Top = 48 - 12.56
Area Top = 35.44
Finally, Find the volume
Volume = area of the top * height
Volume = 35.44 * 15
Volume = 531.6
