Rounding to the nearest tenth means rounding to the decimal place directly to the right of the decimal.

The rules of rounding are fairly simple. If the number to the right of the number you are rounding is greater than or equal to 5, you round up. If the number to the right is less than 5, you round down.

Let's take a look at the number 12.345.
First, round to the hundredths place. The number right before the 4 is 5, so we round up. This gives us the number 12.35.
Next, we have to round to the tenths place. The number to the right of the 3 is 5, so we round up as well. This gives us the number 12.4.

Answer: 12.4

Solve for j. 144j2 + 21 = 85

Answer:

2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

I assume the 2 after the j is a square. So, we bring the 21 to the other side by subtracting it from both sides, getting 144j^2=64. Now we divide to get 64/144 = j^2. Make sure NOT to simplify it, it's perfect right now. The square root of that is $\sqrt{64}/ \sqrt{144}$ , or 8/12, which we can now simplify to 2/3. Hope this helps!
