<span>The tenths place is to the right of the decimal point.</span>
In order to round u number to the nearest tenth, you should <span>to the right of the tenths place. Depending on this number you should determine if you will round up or stay the same (if it is bigger than 5 you will round up, if not it will stay the same).
In our case, the number is 15.5 so it is already rounded to the nearest tenth.

Answer:
14
Step-by-step explanation:
To find x, you will need to use sine. If you want to find y, use cosine:
sin 45 = x / 14 sqrt(2)
x = 14
(Since this is a 45 45 90 special triangle, x and y have the same length)
Since I talk about special triangles, 45 45 90 triangles are very simple:
To find the other two side lengths, just divide the hypotenuse by sqrt 2
14 sqrt(2) / sqrt(2) = 14
So both ways will still lead to 14
