To round a number to the nearest hundred, we count two places to the left of the decimal point, or from the last digit if the number is a whole number.
If the second digit from the last digit is upto 5, we add 1 to the preceding digit and we complete the last two numbers with zeros.
Therefore, any number from 11,950 to 12,049, will result to 12,000 when rounded to the nearest hundred.
The sum of arithmetic series is given by:
Sn=n/2(a1+an)
where:
n=number of terms
a1=first term
an=nth term
but
n=18, an=275, Sn=4185
plugging the values in the formula we get:
4185=18/2(a1+275)
simplifying this we get:
4185=9(a1+275)
dividing through by 9 we get:
465=a1+275
thus
a1=465-275
a1=190
Answer: first number is 190
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
- −5.93 + (−8.62) + 5.93 =
- −5.93 - (8.62 - 5.93) = B
- −(5.93 + 8.62) + 5.93 = C
- −5.93 −8.62 - (- 5.93) = D
- -8.62 A
