<span>Round 287.9412 to the nearest tenth.
Lets solve this!
To round to the nearest tenth, you need to know the tenth place--------
In the number, 287.9412, nine is in the tenth place. You need also make sure whether the number next to 9 is greater than 5 or not.
</span><span>287.9412 =287.941=287.94=287.9=288=290
Thus, your answer is 290.
Hope I helped.

It's obviously none of the above because the true area will have a square root of 3 in it because of the equilateral triangle. They want us to find the approximate area. When I was in school the difference between an approximation and the exact answer was greatly stressed but that seems to be fading of late.
That's a rectangle less an equilateral triangle. The area of an equilateral triangle is 
which is easily derived but I won't bother here.
Answer: b
X^4 + 2x^2 - 24
= (x^2 + 6)(x^2 - 4)
= (x^2 + 6)(x - 2)(x + 2)
x^4 - 9x^2 + 18
= (x^2 - 6)(x^2 - 3)
6. p+12= x
7. i-7= x
8. r/3= x
9. z-1= x
10. y*19= x
x is NOT always the same, it is just a common variable representing the answer
