It was rounding to the nearest THOUSAND.


We are looking at the thousands place, keep that in mind.


Remember: everything 5 and above is rounded up, everything below 5 is rounded down.


186,789 is above 500, it is rounded to 187,000


186,899 is above 500, it is rounded to 187,000


185,990 is above 500, it is rounded to 186,000


and 185,190 is below 500, it is rounded to 185,000


Only one matches the criteria of the question:


185,990 is above 500, it is rounded to 186,000


therefore the answer is 185,990 miles per second



Have a fantastic day!

Which equation represents the graphed function?
katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

the y- intercept is at -3 so is either

y= x-3 or y=2x -3

the x-intercept is at 2 so when y=0, x must be 2

0= x-3 so x=3

0=2x-3 so 2x=3 and x=3/2

in conclusion none of the equations given are the graphed

FYI the equation for the graphed line is

y= 3/2 x-3

Write a equation in slope intercept form of the line that passes through the given point and is perpendicular to the graph of th
soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

The perpendicular line would be y = -2x - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

First we must solve the original equation for y.

x - 2y = 7

-2y = -x + 7

y = 1/2x - 7/2

In order to find the equation of this line, we first have to note that perpendicular lines have opposite and reciprocal slopes. Therefore, since the original line has a slope of 1/2, we know the new line will have a slope of -2. Now we can use that information along with the given point in point-slope form to find the equation.

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 2 = -2(x + 3)

y - 2 = -2x - 6

y = -2x - 4
