Step-by-step explanation:

The dog weighs 76 pounds.

The units value is 6 . Since we round up the tens place when the unit is equal or greater than 5 the answer is 80.

Answer 2

80

Step-by-step explanation:

The dogs weight rounded to the nearest ten pounds would be 80 because 76 rounded to the nearest tenth is 80. The reson why is because the 6 in the ones place is greater than 5 so you round up. Because 76 was the orignial number, and you're trying to round to the neares ten pounds, you round the 7 up because that is the number in the tenths place.
