\bf \qquad \qquad \textit{sum of a finite arithmetic sequence}\\\\
S_n=\cfrac{n}{2}(a_1+a_n)\quad 
\begin{cases}
n=n^{th}\ term\\
a_1=\textit{first term's value}\\ a_n=n^{th}~value\\
----------\\
\stackrel{least}{a_1}=128\\\\
\stackrel{greatest}{a_n}=172
\end{cases}

\bf S_n=\cfrac{n}{2}(128~+~172)\implies S_n=\cfrac{n}{2}(300)\implies S_n=150n
\\\\\\
\textit{but we also know that sum of all interior angles is }180(n-2)
\\\\\\
\stackrel{\textit{sum of the angles}}{S_n}=\stackrel{\textit{sum of the angles}}{180(n-2)}=150n
\\\\\\
180n-360=150n\implies 30n=360\implies n=\cfrac{360}{30}\implies n=12

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of the earth's oceans is approximately 1.34\cdot 10^{9}1.34⋅10

1, point, 03, dot, 10, start superscript, 12, end superscript, start fraction, start text, k, g, end text, divided by, start text, k, m, end text, cubed, end fraction .

To simplify, we will use the product of powers property of exponents that says that x^a\cdot x^b = x^{a+b}x

a+b

x, start superscript, a, end superscript, dot, x, start superscript, b, end superscript, equals, x, start superscript, a, plus, b, end superscript.

\qquad 1.34\cdot 10^{9}\,\cancel{\text{km}^3} \cdot 1.03 \cdot 10^{12}\,\dfrac{\text{kg}}{\cancel{\text{km}^3}} = 1.3802 \cdot 10^{21}\,\text{kg}1.34⋅10

Hint #2

Next we want to know what portion of the earth's mass this represents. We have:

\qquad \begin{aligned} \dfrac{\text{mass of the oceans}}{\text{total mass of the earth}} &= \dfrac{1.3802 \cdot 10^{21}\,\text{kg}}{6\cdot 10^{24}\,\text{kg}} \\\\ &= \dfrac{1.3802}{6\cdot 10^{3}} \\\\ &= \dfrac{1.3802}{6000} \\\\ &= 0.0002300\overline{3} \end{aligned}

total mass of the earth

mass of the oceans

1.3802⋅10

​

=0.0002300

​

To convert this to a percent, we multiply by 100100100, so the oceans represent 0.02300\overline{3}\%0.02300

3

Hint #3

To the nearest hundredth of a percent, 0.020.020, point, 02 percent of the earth's mass is from oceans.
