To find the volume of a cylinder, you can use the formula:

Volume = π * radius^2 * height

In this case, the radius of the cylinder is given as 2.6 yards and the length (or height) is given as 8.4 yards. The value of π to be used is 3.14.

Let's substitute these values into the formula:

Volume = 3.14 * (2.6)^2 * 8.4

First, calculate the value of (2.6)^2, which is the radius squared:

(2.6)^2 = 6.76

Now, substitute this value into the volume formula:

Volume = 3.14 * 6.76 * 8.4

Next, multiply the values together:

Volume = 3.14 * 6.76 * 8.4 = 178.1056

Finally, round the volume to the nearest tenth of a cubic yard, as requested:

Volume ≈ 178.1 cubic yards

So, the volume of the tank is approximately 178.1 cubic yards.
