Hey!

Hope this helps...

Okay... so we know that the train is moving north, which means the Apposing wind (and Friction) would be coming from the south.

We also know that the wind is coming from the West.

And based upon this information, we know that the Smoke has to be going South West because when an Apposing wind is pushed by a natural wind, the object being affected by both winds moves in both directions (a.k.a. diagonal)...

If you need to explain anything, please ask, I also recommend looking at the photo I made below...

Select each pair of equivalent numbers. PLS HELP DUE TMR AND I DONT HOW TO SOLVE IT, PLS SHOW HOW U SET IT UP

The pairs that are equivalent to each other are 40/1000 and 40%, 6/5 and 120%, 1/8 and 12.5% . They are the correct answers because if we divide for example 6/5 , we would get 1.2 and to turn a decimal into a percent we have to move the decimal point 2 times to the right meaning that the percentage would be 120% and you just do that for all! I hope this helped :)!!

What is the value represented by the letter D on the box plot of data?

anyanavicka [17]

Hello!

The letter D is in the place for the upper quartile

To find this you have to find the median of the data

List the numbers from least to greatest

12, 18, 34, 55, 59, 68, 80, 80

The medians are 55 and 59

To get the median we take the average of these numbers

55 + 59 = 114

114 / 2 = 57

The median is 57

To find the upper quartile you find the median of the numbers higher than 57

List the numbers that are higher than 57 in the data

59, 68, 80, 80

Take the average of 68 and 80

68 + 80 = 148

148/2 = 74

The answer is 74

Hope this helps!
