thats not an option
I apologize for the oversight. Let's calculate the surface area again and provide the next closest option.
Surface Area = 2πrh + 2πr^2
Surface Area = 2(3.14)(7)(8) + 2(3.14)(7)^2
Surface Area = 351.92 + 307.72
Surface Area = 659.64 square yards
The closest option to 659.64 square yards is:
577.76 square yards
Therefore, the correct answer would be approximately 577.76 square yards.
The formula for finding the surface area of a cylinder is 2πrh + 2πr^2.
Plugging in the values given:
2(3.14)(7)(8) + 2(3.14)(7)^2 = 351.92 + 307.72 = 659.64
Therefore, the surface area of the cylinder is approximately 659.64 square yards.
Answer: 659.64 square yards
