To find the area of the base \( B \) of a cylinder, you can use the formula for the area of a circle, which is:

\[
B = \pi r^2
\]

where \( r \) is the radius of the base. In this case, the radius \( r \) of the cylinder is given as 7 cm. Therefore, the expression for the area of the base \( B \) would be:

\[
B = \pi(7)^2
\]

So, the correct response is:

\(\pi(7)^2\) (pi times 7 squared)
