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!

A car travels down a highway at 25 m/s. An observer stands 150 m from the highway.
makvit [3.9K]
Let x be the distance (in feet) along the road that the car has traveled and h be the distance (in feet) between the car and the observer.

(a) Before the car passes the observer, we have dh/dt < 0; after it passes, we have dh/dt > 0. So at the instant it passes the observer we have dh/dt = 0, given that dh/dt varies continuously since the car travels at a constant velocity.
