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!

Determine the value of x. Question 3 options: 1) 2.3 2) 10 3) 2.5 4) 2.11
krok68 [10]

This question is incomplete, the diagram is missing. The complete diagram is uploaded along this answer.

Answer: (3) 2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

From the diagram, given that;

BF = 2.3, DF = x, FC = 5, FE = 4.6,

Now

by theorem

BF * FC = DF * FE

so we substitute

2.3 * 5 = x * 4.6

11.5 = 4.6x

x = 11.5 / 4.6

x = 2.5

therefore the value of x is 2.5

marusya05 [52]

Answer:

Probability that the person preferred milk as his or her primary drink  = 0.3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given -

In a recent survey, 18 people preferred milk, 29 people preferred coffee, and 13 people preferred juice as their primary drink for breakfast .

Total no of people is =  18 + 29 + 13 = 60

If a person is selected at random ,

The probability of person preferred milk = \frac{18}{60}

The probability of person preferred coffee = \frac{29}{60}

The probability of person preferred juice = \frac{13}{60}

Probability that the person preferred milk as his or her primary drink =

P ( milk ) = \mathbf{\frac{No\;of\;favourable\;outcomes}{total\;no\;of\:outcomes}}

    =   \frac{18}{60}  =  0.3
