The resistance is 16 ohm's

V=I x R where V is the voltage, I is the current, and R is the resistance in Ohms

120= 15 x R

R=120/15

R= 8 Ohm's

P=VxV / R

P=120v x 120v / 8 ohms

P= 14400/8

P = 1800 watts

R = V x V/P

R = 14400/900

R = 16 Ohm's

The resistance is 16 ohm's:

I = V/R

I = 120/16

I = 7.5 Amps

The correct answer is C. Typeover mode

This is when you select a text and can then type over it and it automatically replaces it with what you're writing. It also creates a little box that lets you edit the selected part easily if that's what you need with things like bold or italic or change the text color.
