<span>The area of the triangle with height 12 inches and the base of 5 inches is 30 square inches. The area (A) of a triangle with height, h, and base, b, is: A = h * b / 2. We know that h = 12 in and that b = 5 in. Therefore, the area of this triangle will be: A = 12 in * 5 in / 2 = 60 in^2 / 2 = 30 in^2. The area of the triangle is 30 square inches.</span>

Step-by-step explanation:

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

)left parenthesis, start text, k, m, end text, cubed, right parenthesis, and ocean water has a mass of about 1.03 \cdot 10^{12}\,\dfrac{\text{kg}}{\text{km}^3}1.03⋅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

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

​

​

 

=

6⋅10

24

kg

1.3802⋅10

21

kg

​

=

6⋅10

3

1.3802

​

=

6000

1.3802

​

=0.0002300

3

​

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

3

%0, point, 02300, start overline, 3, end overline, percent of the earth's total mass, according to these figures.

Hint #3

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