Volume of water plus cube =
The radius is 15 because the diameter is 30.
The volume of the cube by itself is or .
The volume of just the water will be their difference:
Use the formula again for volume of a cylinder. The height or depth, h will be an unknown for which you will solve for:
Solve for h.
