Answer: See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Second term = a + d = 28 ....... i

Fifth term = a + 4d = 52 ......... ii

Subtract equation I from ii

3d = 24

d = 24/3 = 8

d = common difference = 8

Since a + d = 28

a + 8 = 28

a = 28 - 8 = 20

First term = a = 20

u10 = a + (n-1)d

= a + (10-1)8

= 20 + (9 × 8)

= 20 + 72

= 92

How do you round to the greatest place value

gregori [183]

Example: round 24,356 the greatest place value.

> Rounding Numbersto the Greatest Place Value < you are here
Example-2: round 8,636 to the greatest place value.

Look to the right of the number in the thousands
place. It's a 6, so round up.

8,636 is rounded to 9,000 because the highest place
value of that number is in the thousands place.
