We have to round the value of 0.1561 to the nearest tenth.

The number after decimal is the number at tenth place. Consider the number to the right of the tenths place and use the number to determine if you will round up or stay the same. Notice that the number to the right of tenth place is more than or equal to 5 or less than 5. If that number is greater than or equal to 5, then the number will round up but if that number is less than 5, then the number will not round up. It will remain same.

Let us consider the given number 0.1561

The number at tenths place is 1

The number after the tenths place is 5 (which is either greater than or equal to 5)

So, the number will round up to 0.2

The 5 after the 1 rounds it up. So the answer is .2

kherson [118]

Answer: The hook would be 2.2 inches (approximately) above the top of the frame

Step-by-step explanation: Please refer to the picture attached for further details.

The top of the picture frame has been given as 9 inches and a 10 inch ribbon has been attached in order to hang it on a wall. The ribbon at the point of being hung up would be divided into 5 inches on either side (as shown in the picture). The line from the tip/hook down to the frame would divide the length of the frame into two equal lengths, that is 4.5 inches on either side of the hook. This would effectively give us two similar right angled triangles with sides 5 inches, 4.5 inches and a third side yet unknown. That third side is the distance from the hook to the top of the frame. The distance is calculated by using the Pythagoras theorem which states as follows;

AC^2 = AB^2 + BC^2

Where AC is the hypotenuse (longest side) and AB and BC are the other two sides

5^2 = 4.5^2 + BC^2

25 = 20.25 + BC^2

Subtract 20.25 from both sides of the equation

4.75 = BC^2

Add the square root sign to both sides of the equation

2.1794 = BC

Rounded up to the nearest tenth, the distance from the hook to the top of the frame will be 2.2 inches
