2/3 = 6/9

6/9 - 4/9 = 2/9

160÷2 = 80

80 = 1/9

80*9= 720 pennies

2/3X - 160 = 4/9X
2/3X - 4/9X = 160
6/9X -4/9X = 160
2/9X = 160
X =80x9
X = 720

Which describes the shape of the distribution of total points in Mr. Price's science class?

Nimfa-mama [501]

A bell curve describes a random distribution where at either end is a low amount with the middle representing a higher amount of points.

So at either ends are “extremes” were someone scored really low or really high. The middle presents the average where most people will score

a wagon is pulled at speed of 40.0 m/s by a horse exerting 1800 newton horizonal force what is the power of horse

Sonbull [250]

Answer:

The power of horse is: P = 72000 W

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

F = 1800 N

v = 40.0 m/s

To determine

P = ?

Using the formula

$\:\:\:P=\overrightarrow{F\cdot }\overrightarrow{v}$

The ⋅ in the formula represents a scalar product, defined by:

$\overrightarrow{v\cdot }\overrightarrow{w}=|v||w|cos\:\theta$

The angle Ф is zero because F and v are are parallel.

Thus the cosine is 1.

Therefore,

P = (1800) (40.0)

P = 72000 W

Hence, the power of horse is: P = 72000 W
