4.5^2+6.5 rounded to nearest tenth

1 answer

To solve the expression \(4.5^2 + 6.5\):

  1. Calculate \(4.5^2\): \[ 4.5^2 = 20.25 \]

  2. Add \(6.5\): \[ 20.25 + 6.5 = 26.75 \]

  3. Round \(26.75\) to the nearest tenth:

    • The digit in the tenths place is \(7\) and the digit in the hundredths place is \(5\), which means we round up.

Thus, \(26.75\) rounded to the nearest tenth is \(26.8\).
