Because 58 is closer to 100 than 0
another example you can see is if it was 10058 and you were asked to round to the nearest hundred you can say 10100

For this case we have the following definition:

hundred place: number of three digits whose absolute value is greater than zero.

Then, we have the following rounding rule:

If the previous number is greater than or equal to five, the next number increases by one unit.

We then have the following number:

58

We observe that the number before a hundred place is equal to five.

Therefore, rounding off we have:

58 = 100

Answer:

According to rounding rules we have 58 can be rounded to the nearest hundred:

100

What is the point-slope form of a line that has a slope of 5 and passes through point (-7, 2)?
Katarina [22]

Answer:

y - 2 = 5(x + 7)

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in point- slope form is

y - b = m(x - a)

where m is the slope and (a, b) a point on the line

here m = 5 and (a, b) = (- 7, 2), hence

y - 2 = 5(x - (- 7)), that is

y - 2 = 5(x + 7)

Three-eighths of the students in a certain class are males and 3/5 of the male
Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

3/5 of the students in the class are not in accounting majors

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of males in the class is 3/8

3/5 of them are accounting majors

The ones who are not in accounting majors are;

3/8 - 3/5 = 9/40

The total number of female students in the class is;

8/8 - 3/8 = 5/8

1/4 of them are accounting majors

The ones who are not in accounting majors are;

5/8 - 1/4 = 3/8

Total number of students not in accounting majors;

9/40 + 3/8

= 24/40

= 3/5
