43.586 rounded to the nearest tenth is <u>43.6</u>, nearest hundredth is <u>43.59</u> and nearest ones is <u>44</u>.

FURTHER EXPLANATION

<em>Place Values  </em>

Every digit in a number is assigned a place value. The place value determines the value or size of the digit based on its position in the number. In decimal numbers, the numbers to the left of the decimal point are the whole part and the numbers appearing after the decimal point is the decimal part.

Example: 12.3456

The place values of the digits in the given example are as follows:

1 – tens  (10)

2 – ones (2)

3 – tenths (0.3)

4 – hundredths (0.04)

5 – thousandths (0.005)

6 – ten thousandths (0.0006)

Adding the values in the expanded form will give the number:

10 + 2 + 0.3 + 0.04 + 0.005 + 0.0006 = 12.3456

<em>Rounding Off Rules </em>

Sometimes numbers have to expressed with fewer place values or decimal places. To find out what the rounded number will be, a set of rules are followed to standardize the rounding off:

1. If the digit to be rounded is followed by a digit that is less than 5 (0,1,2,3,4), the digit will be unchanged and the numbers after it are dropped.

Example: 2.344 rounded to the nearest tenth is 2.3

2. If the digit to be rounded is followed by a digit greater than or equal to 5, the last digit must be increased by 1 and the succeeding digits are dropped.

Example: 4.584 rounded to the nearest tenth is 4.6

<em>Some Important Terms </em>

  • When a digit is to be"rounded to the nearest tenths", it means that the resulting number will have one decimal place.
  • "Rounded to the nearest hundredths" means the rounded number will have two decimal places.

For the given number 43.586, the place values of the digits are as follows:

4 – tens

3 – ones

5 – tenths

7 - hundredths

8 – thousandths

6 – ten thousandths

<em><u>Rounding to the nearest tenths </u></em>

43.586 will become 43.6

<em>The digit in the tenths place is 5. It is immediately followed by 8. 8 is greater than 5 so the last digit will be increased. </em>

<em><u>Rounding to the nearest hundredths </u></em>

43.586 will become 43.59

<em>8 is the digit in the hundredths place. It is followed by 6 which is greater than 5. Therefore, add 1 to 8 and it becomes 43.59. </em>

<em><u>Rounding to the nearest ones </u></em>

43.586 will become 44

<em>The digit with the ones place value is 3. It is succeeded by 5 so the last digit 3 must be increased by 1 becoming 44. </em>

Find the measure of and angle between o degrees and 360 degrees coterminal with an angle of 399 degrees in standard position
horrorfan [7]

Answer:

39 degrees.

Step-by-step explanation:

We want an angle  x  such that   0 < x < 360   and angle x is coterminal with an angle of measure 399 degrees.

so   x =  399 - 360 = 39 degrees

Give the following equations determine if the lines are parallel perpendicular or neither
GaryK [48]

In order to determine whether the equations are parallel, perpendicular, or neither, let's simply each equation into a slope-intercept form or basically, solve for y.

Let's start with the first equation.

\frac{6x-5y}{2}=x+1

Cross multiply both sides of the equation.

6x-5y=2(x+1)6x-5y=2x+2

Subtract 6x on both sides of the equation.

6x-5y-6x=2x+2-6x-5y=-4x+2

Divide both sides of the equation by -5.

-\frac{5y}{-5}=\frac{-4x}{-5}+\frac{2}{-5}y=\frac{4}{5}x-\frac{2}{5}

Therefore, the slope of the first equation is 4/5.

Let's now simplify the second equation.

-4y-x=4x+5

Add x on both sides of the equation.

-4y-x+x=4x+5+x-4y=5x+5

Divide both sides of the equation by -4.

\frac{-4y}{-4}=\frac{5x}{-4}+\frac{5}{-4}y=-\frac{5}{4}x-\frac{5}{4}

Therefore, the slope of the second equation is -5/4.

Since the slope of each equation is the negative reciprocal of each other, then the graph of the two equations is perpendicular to each other.
