Answer: 29.2%
Step-by-step explanation:
The total surface area is 196.9 million square miles and out of this, land occupies 57.5 million square miles.
The probability that a meteorite would hit land is the percentage of and out of the entire planet area:
= Land area/ Total earth surface area
= 57.5/ 196.9
= 29.2%
The answer should be 2x-5
You can solve this by algebraically as well as graphically. When I tried both ways I got:
solution is x= -2<span />
