Answer:

849.75 km^2

Step-by-step explanation:

First, 6.75% is equal to 0.0675

each year, it decreases by 0.0675 x 3300 or 222.75km^2

0.0675 x 3300

222.75 km^2

in 11 years, 11 x 222.75, 2450.25, will be gone

11 x 222.75

2450.25 km^2

that means 849.75 km^2 will be left:

3300 - 2450.25

849.75 km^2

Answer:

849.75

Step-by-step explanation:

3300-222.75x

x is the year

222.75 is 6.75%

3300-222.75(11)=849.75
