The highest place value is in the ten thousand for both of these numbers. Let's round the two numbers first, and then we will add them. Let's round 23,945. So, we need to round to the ten thousand place, so we look at the number behind it (3) and act accordingly.
Remember:
5 or more? Raise the Score
4 or less? Let it Rest
We are looking at the bolded number: 23,945. This number is 4 or less, so we let it rest. So, the new rounded number is 20,000. 
Now let's look at 46,718. So, we need to round to the ten thousand place, so we look at the number behind it (6) and act accordingly. Look at the bolded number: 46,718. This number is 5 or more, so we raise the score. The new rounded number becomes 50,000.
Now, all you have to do is add 20,000+50,000, which is 70,000. Hope this helped!

Please help solve the inequality.
gulaghasi [49]

Answer:

Are there two you're asking for?

#2: x ≥ 9

#3: x > -2

Step-by-step explanation:

#2 Work:

x - 13 ≥ -4

Step 1: Add 13 to both sides

x - 13 + 13 ≥ -4 + 13

Add -4 and 13 to get 9.

x ≥ 9

#3 Work:

x/2 > -1

Multiply both sides by 2. Since 2 is positive, the inequality direction remains the same

x/2 * 2 > -1 * 2

x > -2

1. Mr.Customs is correcting the class’s math homework on customary units. Which of the following measurements is reasonable?
frosja888 [35]

Answer:

The reasonable measurement in question 1 is D - the distance from New York to California is 2,250 miles.  The best unit of measurement for the length of the distance of your textbook is A - inch.  

Step-by-step explanation:

The United States uses the Imperial System of measurement which uses things such as inches, feet, yards and miles.  In order to understand reasonable measurements, you need to first realize the order in which size would be determined.  For instance, 12 inches is equal to one foot, which can be found on your typical ruler.  Additionally, three feet is equal to one yard, which we can find on a yard stick.  Lastly, there are 1,760 yards in one mile, which is typically measured with some time of pedometer/odometer.  So, when you think about calculating measurement for common things such as a pencil or distance between cities, think about whether this distance could be measured using a ruler or perhaps the odometer on a car.
