$S = 5 π$ $S=5pi$

Explanation:

The volume of a cylinder $V$ $V$ is $V = S h$ $V=Sh$ , where $S$ $S$ is the area of the base and $h$ $h$ is the height.
The volume of a cone is $V = \frac{1}{3} S h$ $V=1/3Sh$ .

Let $S$ $S$ the area of the base in this solid.
The volume of the cone is $V_{co} = \frac{1}{3} \cdot S \cdot 33 = 11 S$ $V_"co"=1/3*S*33=11S$ and the volume of the cylinder is $V_{cy} = S \cdot 17 = 17 S$ $V_"cy"=S*17=17S$

The total volume is $V = V_{co} + V_{cy} = 11 S + 17 S = 28 S$ $V=V_"co"+V_"cy"=11S+17S=28S$ .
Therefore,
$28 S = 140 π$ $28S=140pi$
$S = 5 π$ $S=5pi$
is the required answer.
