Step 1: Locate and underline the tenth place (4) and look to the right (8)

1.48

Step 2: In this case, the digit to the right 8 is 5 or above. So, we add 1 to the tenth place 4. The digit at the right 8 becomes 0, thus we get 1.5 as the answer.

In short: 1.48 rounded to the nearest tenth is 1.5.

dezoksy [38]

First calculate what the coupon does for Camille
so multiply %20 by the cost or .2(47.99)=9.598 which rounds to 9.60 meaning she still paid $38.39
Then calculate sales tax by multiplying her clearance price by %6 and adding it on the cost
.06(38.39)= 2.3034 which rounds to $2.30 in tax.
Add that onto the clearance price 38.39+2.30=$40.69
So her total cost was $40.69

TRI has vertices T(-3, 4), R(3, 4), and I(0,0). Is TRI scalene, isosceles, or equilateral?

KatRina [158]

Answer:

Isosceles

Step-by-step explanation:

Graph your triangle!

Then, do the distance formula. So from T to I is 5 units, R to I is 5 units, and T to R is 6 units. As two side lengths are congruent, the triangle is isosceles.
