139,799,000‬ square miles of Earth's surface area is covered with water

Step-by-step explanation:

Percentage will be used to calculate the surface area of earth covered by water

Given

Surface area of earth = 196900000 square miles

Percentage of water = 71%

So,

$Surface\ area\ covered\ by\ water = 71\%\ of\ 196900000\\= 0.71 * 196900000\\= 139,799,000\ square\ miles$

Hence,

139,799,000 square miles of Earth's surface area is covered with water

Reika [66]

Step-by-step explanation:

$(x - 4)(x + 2) = 16 \\ {x}^{2} + (- 4 + 2)x + ( - 4) \times 2= 16 \\ {x}^{2} - 2x - 8 - 16 = 0 \\ {x}^{2} - 2x - 24 = 0 \\ is \: the \: standard \: form.$

A rectangle and a square have the same area. The width of the rectangle is 2 in less than the side of the square and the length

lina2011 [118]

The area of a rectangle is A=LW, the area of a square is A=S^2.

W=S-2 and L=2S-3

And we are told that the areas of each figure are the same.

S^2=LW, using L and W found above we have:

S^2=(2S-3)(S-2) perform indicated multiplication on right side

S^2=2S^2-4S-3S+6 combine like terms on right side

S^2=2S^2-7S+6 subtract S^2 from both sides

S^2-7S+6=0 factor:

S^2-S-6S+6=0

S(S-1)-6(S-1)=0

(S-6)(S-1)=0, since W=S-2, and W>0, S>2 so:

S=6 is the only valid value for S. Now we can find the dimensions of the rectangle...

W=S-2 and L=2S-3 given that S=6 in

W=4 in and L=9 in

So the width of the rectangle is 4 inches and the length of the rectangle is 9 inches.
