Answer:
Option D: NOW
Explanation:
In Microsoft Excel, NOW function can be used to return a serial number that corresponds to the system date and time beginning with December 31, 1899.
The NOW function is useful when a date and time is required for calculation or display. The value will be updated each time we open the Excel worksheet. To use the NOW function, we can type in the formula as follows:
<em>=NOW() </em>
Answer:
1.) Relative cell reference - A1
2.) Absolute cell reference - $D$2
3.) Mixed cel reference - $D2
Explanation:
In Microsoft Excel, cell references are very important and critical when dealing with formula. They can give you what you’re looking for or make your entire worksheet incorrect.
A cell reference is a cell address or a range of cell addresses that can be used in a formula.
There are three types of cell references and they are;
a) Relative reference
b) Absolute reference
c) Mixed reference
A relative cell reference is a cell reference that changes when you copy the formula to other cells. It s usually just a normal cell reference like A1, B2, C3. If a formula with a relative cell reference is copied down to other cells, the formula will change. That is a formula with a relative cell reference changes with respect to the cell which it is copied to.
An absolute reference does not change when you copy the formula to other cells. In absolute references, the dollar sign $ is used to “lock” both the row and column so that it does not change when it is copied to other cells. An example is $D$2.
Using a mixed cell reference, one is trying to see that only either the row or column changes with respect to other cells when they are copied. It is like “locking” either the column or the row while changing the other. Just like from the example, $D2 is a mixed cell reference where only the column is locked such that only the row changes when the formula is copied to other cells.
I believe the correct answer from the choices listed above is option D. <span>When planning the structure of a spreadsheet, columns are for group items and rows are for single items. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.</span>
