Answer:

7.809 g/cm^3

Explanation:

Density is mass over volume so we need to find the mass and volume of the steel.

First we find the volume of the wood:

Vw = 9*6*6 = 324 cm^3

now we can find the mass of the wood, as mass = density * volume

mw = .68*324 = 220.32g

subtracting the mass of wood from total mass, we get the mass of steel

970-220.32 = 749.68g

now we can find the volume of the pyramid

Vs = 1/3 *6*6* (17-9) = 96 cm^3

Now we divide mass by volume to get density

749.68/96 = 7.809 g/cm^3

Confirming this with known data, density of steel is roughly between 7.75 and 8.05 g/cm^3 so we know we're correct.
