Given that the measurement is in centimeters, find the circumference of the circle to the nearest tenth. (Use 3.14 for π)
A) 15.7 cm
B) 31.4 cm
C) 62.8 cm
D) 78.5 cm

Circumference of the circle is 31.4 cm

Given that;

Value of π = 3.14

Radius of circle = 5 cm (Approx.)

Circumference of the circle = 2πr

Circumference of the circle = 2(3.14)(5)

Circumference of the circle = (10)(3.14)

Circumference of the circle = 31.4 cm

So, option "B" is the correct answer to the following question.

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the circumference of a circle of radius r is C = 2πr.  That for a circle of diameter d is C = πd.  

If we assume that the measurements below are of radius, not diameter, then in A, 15.7 cm = 2(3.14)(r), so that r must be 2.5 cm.

Please be sure to share ALL of the instructions for each problem.

the largest number of the four options is 1.8 x 10-2

you have it in scientific notation.

1.80 x 10-6   = 0.00000180

1.80 x 10-4   = 0.000180 (bigger, or "less small", than the former one)

so

1.8 x 10-2       = 0.0180. as you see. the "less small", or the biggest one of them all.

as you have negative exponent, it means you are dividing 1.8 by 100 (i.e. moving the dot towards left, two times).

if you had positive exponent for the scientific notation, power of tenths, you would be multiplying times 100 (moving the dot towards right) as below:

1.8 x (10)2 = 180

so. if you have negative exponent in scientific notation, move the dot toward left. if it is positive, toward right as many times the exponent tells you.

the battle of gettysburg is considered the "high water mark" of the confederacy because it marked the greatest advance of the confederate forces against the union.
