A number rounded to the nearest 10000, means that the last four digits of that number (on the left of the decimal point) are 0.
<span>However, if the fourth-last digit to the left of the decimal point is 5 or greater, the number to the left of that is rounded to 1 number higher. For example, if you were rounding 145293 to the nearest 10000, it would be 150000.
However, the </span>fourth-last digit to the left of the decimal point in this case is 1.
Therefore, <span> 21000 rounded to the nearest 10000 is 20000.

X=number of adults, y= number of students
x+y=12
18x+12y=162
You can simplify the second equation by dividing by six: 3x+2y=27
Rearrange the first equation: y= 12-x. Plug y into the simplified second equation:
3x+2(12-x)=27
3x-2x+24=27
x=3.
Plug the now known x value into y=12-x. So y= 9.
Therefore, there are 3 adults and 9 students.
Answer:
yes you flip the sign because you are diving by a negative
If brian is 8 and his brother is twice his age, his brother is 16. His brother is 8 years older so when Brian is 11 he will be 19
<u>(2 x y) </u>is a factor of (6 x y), so it's the highest common factor of both expressions.
