Answer:

1356cm3

Step-by-step explanation:

when the stone is dropped in to the water the new height is 17.4cm(14+3.4)

find the volume when the height is 14cm and when the height is 17.4cm

24*14*17.4=4716

24*14*14=3360

then subtract the two volumes

4716-3360=1356cm3

Answer:

816 cm^3

Step-by-step explanation:

First you want to find the volume of the container with the stone, and then without the stone.

The formula for finding the volume of a rectangular container is V= l x w x h

We substitue in:

With stone:

V= 24cm x 10 cm x (14+3.4 cm)

V= 4,176 cm^3

Without stone:

V= 24 cm x 10 cm x 14 cm

V= 3,360 cm^3

Then, you want to subtract the two volumes to get the stone by itself.

4,176 - 3,360= 816 cm^3

Hope this helps!

PS- I think the answer above me got their numbers mixed up, but they had the right idea.

Write 4–6 sentences explaining why it is important to have precise definitions in mathematics.
dimaraw [331]
Mathematics can be tricky so precise definitions are important. Without them there can be confusion which more often then not will generate a wrong answer. With clear precise definitions it is easier to understand the topic. Therefore, it is easier to get the correct answer.
