A big rock is placed into a tub of water, forcing the water level to rise if the water rose 2.5 inches. If the water rose 2.5 inches, find the volume of the rock. The Width of the water tank is 20, and the length is 8.

volume of the rock is volume of displaced water

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how do I solve that?

basically the volume of displaced water will be the increase in height, times the area of the tub
