Answer:


\boxed {\boxed {\sf v=28 \ mL}}

Step-by-step explanation:

Jason found the volume of the marble using water displacement.

To calculate the volume, we must subtract the initial volume from the final volume.


v_f-v_i

The initial or original volume is 50 milliliters.

The final volume, after the marble is added to the water, is 78 milliliters.


v_f=78 \ mL\\v_i=50 \ mL

Substitute the values into the formula and subtract.


78 \ mL-50 \ mL


28 \ mL

The volume of the marble is 28 milliliters.
