The tenth place is located where the '5' is in the following number: 2.54
So, you look at the number after the 5 to see if you round it up or down.

Remember the basic rule of rounding - if the digit after the digit you are rounding is 5 or above, then you round the digit up by one. If the digit is 4 or below, then you leave that digit alone.

Let's look at the first one.
Rochester - 0.97
The nine is in the tenths place, and the digit after it is greater than 5, so you round it up to 1.
Ithaca - 0.947
The digit after the nine is below five, so you don't round it up, leaving it at 0.9.
Saratoga Springs - 1.5
There is no digit after the 5, so you leave this one as 1.5.
New York City - 1.268
The digit after the 2 is greater than 5, so you round it up to 1.3.

I hope that I helped :)

What is the image of the point (5,-4) after a rotation of 90° counterclockwise about the origin?

Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

(4,5)

Step-by-step explanation:

Rotating a point by 90 degrees counterclockwise would make the y become x and switch it's negative/positive value, and make x the y.

Ex: (x,y) would become (-y,x)

Does the point (-4, 3) fall on the graph of this line? How do you know? Show your work. ( 2 points) PLEASE HELP ILL MARK BRAINLI

Elanso [62]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we know the line goes through points $(8,9)$ and $(2,4)$ , we can construct a line in slope-intercept form

$y = mx + b$

where $m$ is the slope and $b$ is the Y-intercept.

The slope can be found using the two points provided:

$\frac{y_{2} - y_{1}}{x_{2} - x_{1}}$

$\frac{9 - 4}{8 - 2}$

$\frac{5}{6}$

The line is now represented as

$y = \frac{5}{6}x + b$

To solve for $b$ , we can plug in one of the two points:

$y = \frac{5}{6}x + b$

$(9) = \frac{5}{6}(8) + b$

$4 = \frac{20}{3} + b$

$b = \frac{-8}{3}$

We know have our line:

$y = \frac{5}{6}x - \frac{8}{3}$

To determine if the point $(-4, 3)$ falls on this line, we just plug the numbers into the equation and see if it holds true:

$y = \frac{5}{6}x - \frac{8}{3}$

$(3) = \frac{5}{6}(-4) - \frac{8}{3}$

$3 = \frac{-10}{3} - \frac{8}{3}$

$3 = \frac{-18}{3}$

$3 = -6$

This does not hold true, so the point is not on the line.

Write the number 7.1 x 10⁻⁵ in standard form

solong [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

10^-5 is .00001, If it was 10^5 it would be 100,000, but since it is negative, you will have to "flip" it around. 0.1 is 10^-1 10^-2 is .01, 10^-3 is .001 etc...

Now .00001 * 7.1 is just .000071

:) hope this helped.
