Question

Nguyen uses a graduated cylinder to find the volume of each rock. Determine the initial volume of water in the graduated cylinder. Then determine the final volume in the graduated cylinder for rocks X, Y, and Z.

Fill in the data table, and calculate the volume of each rock.

Answer 1

X: 38ml - 30ml = 8

Y: 35ml - 30ml = 5

Z: 40ml - 30ml = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

The original amount of water was 30ml. Therefore, you should subtract 30 from the amount of the beakers Rock X, Y, and Z. Then you will get the volume of the rock.

Answer 2

Answer: The initial water was 30ml so what you do is subtract 30 from the amount of the other beakers to get the volume of the rock.

Explanation:

X- 38ml-30ml= 8

Y- 35ml-30ml=5

z- 40ml-30ml=10
