Mr. Reed DATA:

rate = 40 mph ; time = x 4.5 hrs ; distance = 40x miles

-----

Mrs. Reed DATA:

rate = 60 mph ; time = x hrs ; distance = 60x - 210 miles

------

Equation:

40x = 60x -210

-20x = -210

x = 10.5 hrs

x-3.5 = 7 hrs (Mr. Reed's time)

Julli [10]

Answer: 398.5750

Step-by-step explanation:

It is important to remember that the fourth digit after the decimal point is in the ten-thousandth place.

Then, given the  following number:

398.574986215

You can follow these steps in order ti round it to the nearest ten-thousandth:

1. You can identify that the digit in the ten-thousandth place is:

9

2. Identify the digit to the right of 9. This is:

8

3. Since:

 8>5

 You must round up. Increase the digit 9 by 1. (Notice that 9+1=10, then the digit to the left of  9 increases by 1 too). Then:

398.5750
