Question

question 8 2 pts if an engine is rated at 65 hp max, what hp is developed at 65% power? (nearest whole number)

Explanation:

Step1: Convert percentage to decimal

To find 65% of a number, we first convert 65% to a decimal. 65% = 0.65.

Step2: Calculate the power

We multiply the maximum power (65 hp) by the decimal - equivalent of the percentage. So, the power developed is \(65\times0.65\).
\[65\times0.65 = 42.25\]

Step3: Round to the nearest whole number

Rounding 42.25 to the nearest whole number gives 42.

Answer:

42
