Sindrei [870]

Answer:

C. 500 + 300 + 50 + 10 + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Which expression represents the number 867?

A. 80 + 60 + 70

B. 800 + 6 + 7

C. 500 + 300 + 50 + 10 + 7

D. 500 + 300 + 60 + 70

Checking the answer choices by adding the expression

A. 80 + 60 + 70

= 210

No correct

B. 800 + 6 + 7

= 813

Not correct

C. 500 + 300 + 50 + 10 + 7

= 867

Correct

D. 500 + 300 + 60 + 70

= 930

Not correct

Therefore option C. 500 + 300 + 50 + 10 + 7 is the correct answer

katrin [286]

Answer:

x = 3, x = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve these factored equations, just divide each part by zero and solve.

2x(x-3) = 0 → (x-3) = 0, and 2x = 0.

(x-3) = 0 → x - 3 + 3 = 0 + 3 → <u>x = 3.</u>

2x = 0 → 2x/2 = 0/2 → <u>x = 0.</u>

A line that is drawn straight through the midpoint of a circle and that has its end points on the circle border is called the diameter (d)
Half of the diameter, or the distance from the midpoint to the circle border, is called the radius of the circle (r).
The circumference of a circle is found using this formula:
