John wants to know the volume of his gold ring in cubic centimeters. He gets a glass in the shape of a rectangular prism with a base 3\text{ cm}3 cm3, start text, space, c, m, end text by 2\text{ cm}2 cm2, start text, space, c, m, end text and fills the glass with 3.1\text{ cm}3.1 cm3, point, 1, start text, space, c, m, end text of water. John drops his gold ring in the glass and measures the new height of the water to be 3.7\text{ cm}3.7 cm3, point, 7, start text, space, c, m, end text. What is the volume of John's ring in cubic centimeters?

(01.03 mc) which of the following is a step in simplifying the expression x multiplied by y to the power of 2 over x to the power of negative 3 multiplied by y to the power of 3, the whole to the power of negative 4. select one: a. x to the power of negative 4 multiplied by y to the power of negative 2, the whole over x to the power of negative 7 multiplied by y to the power of negative 1. b. x to the power of negative 4 multiplied by y to the power of negative 8, the whole over x to the power of 12 multiplied by y to the power of negative 12. c. x to the power of negative 4 multiplied by y to the power of negative 8, the whole over x to the power of negative 3 multiplied by y to the power of 3. d. x to the power of negative 4 multiplied by y to the power of negative 2, the whole over x to the power of negative 3 multiplied by y to the power of 3.
