The value of a specific piece of machinery depreciates at a rate of 10% per year. The initial value of the machinery is $400. Find the value of the machine after 5 years to
the nearest cent.

Planet earth has a mass of 5.9726x10²⁴ kg.then: 5.9726x10²⁴ kg=100% of the total earth mass.if the water´s mass=5x10-4 % of the total mass, we can solve this problem by the rule of three.5.9726x10²⁴ %*10⁻⁴ %x=(5.9726x10²³ kg)(5*10⁻⁴  %) / 100 %=2.9863x10¹⁹ kganswer:   the mass of the planet´s water would be   2.9863 x 10¹⁹ kg.
