Answer:
Round 1627187 to the nearest ten?
2 answers:
Answer:
1627190
Step-by-step explanation:
(see attached for reference)
Given the number 1627187, we can see that the number in the tens place is the number 8.
How we round this depends on the number immediately to the right of this number. (i.e the digit in the ones place)
Case 1: If the digit in the ones place is less less than 5, then the number in the tens place remains the same and replace all the digits to its right with zeros
Case 2: If the digit in the ones places is 5 or greater, then we increase the digit in the tens place and replace all the digits to its right with zeros.
In our case, the digit in the ones places is 7, this greater than 5, hence according to Case 2 above, we increase the digit in the tens place by one (from 8 to 9) and replace all the digits to its right by zeros giving us:
1627190

The distance between the points (d) is found using the Pythagorean theorem.
Imagine the two points as defining the hypotenuse of a right triangle. The lengths of the legs of the triangle are the horizontal distance between the points and the vertical distance between the points. The the theorem tells us
d² = 4² + 7²
d² = 16 + 49
d² = 65
d = √65 ≈ 8.1
The distance between the points is
C 8.1
_____
You know that the distance must be longer than the longest leg (7) and must be shorter than the sum of the two legs (4+7=11). The only answer choice between 7 and 11 is 8.1.
