Well, first you need to decide what place you want to round it TO.
Example: Round it to the nearest hundredth:
The next larger hundredth is 186.29 .
The next smaller hundredth is 186.28 .
Now look at it.
186.282 is closer to 186.28 than it is to 186.29 .
So the nearest hundredth is 186.28 .
-- When 186.282 is rounded to the nearest hundredth, it becomes 186.28 .
Similarly . . .
-- When 186.282 is rounded to the nearest tenth, it becomes 186.3 .
-- When 186.282 is rounded to the nearest whole number, it becomes 186 .
-- When 186.282 is rounded to the nearest ten, it becomes 190 .
-- When 186.282 is rounded to the nearest hundred, it becomes 200 .
-- When 186.282 is rounded to the nearest thousand or anything larger,
it becomes zero.
I'm curious . . . where did this number come from ?
It happens to be one thousandth of the speed of light, in miles per hour.
Did it come up in science class, or did a science geek use it for
one of the problems in math ?
Make an equation:
x= 16% x 50
x= 16 50
---- x ---- Cross Multiply
100 1
x= 16
------ = 8
Answer:
118x
Step-by-step explanation: hopes this helps
y=-7x+2
m=-7, so that's a negative slope.
b=2, so the y-intercept is (0,2). That's a postiive y-intercept.
Solve 0=-7x+2 to find the x-intercept.
7x=2
x=2/7
The x-intercept is (2/7,0), so that's a positive x-intercept.
