To round to 3 sign. fig. you have to look at your fourth figure, is it between 0-4? If yes, then it´s should be rounded down. Is it between 5-9? If no, then it´s should be rounded up.
Now, in this case the fourth figure is 4, meaning it should be rounded down..
198 is therefore your answer:D

To round to any amount of significant figures, you want to count how many numbers there are, and take into account the amount of significant figures. In this case it would be 198, because you wouldn't round the number. In future reference, if a zero is after a decimal (198.0) the zero is considered a significant number. If the zero is sandwiched between two numbers (101) it is significant. You can always use expanded notation if the number is too big to round (1570000 rounded to 3 significant figures would be 1.57x10^6) expanded notation is a bit tricky and you can definitely find some helpful YouTube videos that will go more into depth. I hope this was helpful!

Simplify -8(4-3x)-17x
Luda [366]
1. distribute the -8 into the parentheses and you get -32+24x-17x
2. combine like terms and get -32+7x
3. if you need to make it simpler set the equation = to zero -32+7x=0 and then add the 32 on both sides
4. 7x=32 and then divide by 7 and you get 32/7 or approximately 4.571

I hope this helped!! :)

two sides of an obtuse triangle measure 12 inches and 14 inches .the longest side measures 14 inches .what is the greatedt possi
lana [24]
The largest side of the triangle measures 14 in. The triangle is obtuse so no two sides can be of equal length.

The sides of the triangle must follows the following two rules:
a) The sum of any two sides must be greater than the third side.
b) The difference of any two sides must be greater than the third side. 

Since the largest side is 14, the unknown side will be smaller than 14. Only whole number values are allowed so the answer to this question will be 13.

For the side lengths 12, 13, 14, the sum of any two sides will be greater than the third side and difference of any two sides will be smaller than the two sides. The length is a whole number and the greatest positive number.

So, the <span>greatest possible whole number length of the unknown side can be 13 inches. </span>
