Answer:
Vertically Shrunk by a factor of 1/6
Explanation:
Parent Formula: f(x) = a(bx - c) + d
<em>a</em> - vertical shrink/stretch and x-reflections
<em>b</em> - horizontal shrink/stretch and y-reflections
<em>c</em> - horizontal movement left/right
<em>d</em> - vertical movement up/down
Since we are only modifying <em>a</em>, we are dealing with vertical shrink/stretch:
Since a < 1 (1/6 < 1), we are dealing with a vertical shrink of 1/6.
Since a > 0 (1/6 > 0), we do not have a reflection over the x-axis.
Answer:
147,558,601 sqkm
Explanation:
The earth is spherical in shape;
area of sphere = 4πr²
if 70.8% is covered by water then 100-70.8 will be land,
= 29.2%
area occupied by land = (29.2/100) * 4πr²
= 0.292*4*3.142*(6371)²
=147,558,601 sqkm
