You may recognize that ∆WYZ is a 3-4-5 right triangle. Without any work, then
c = 5
_____
If you don't remember that a right triangle with legs 3 and 4 has a hypotenuse of 5, you can compute it using the Pythagorean theorem.
c² = 3² + 4²
c² = 9 + 16 = 25
c = √25 = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
0.75a + 2(0.90) = 27.60
is the correct answer
X²+y²-2y=7
using the formula that links Cartesian to Polar coordinates
x=rcosθ and y=r sin θ
substituting into our expression we get:
(r cos θ)²+(r sin θ)²-2rsinθ=7
expanding the brackets we obtain:
r²cos²θ+r²sin²θ=7+2rsinθ
r²(cos²θ+sin²θ)=7+2rsinθ
using trigonometric identity:
cos²θ+sin²θ=1
thus
r²=2rsinθ+7
Answer: r²=2rsinθ+7
Answer:
ai) 73000 gal/yr
aii) $730 per year
b) 1000 days
Step-by-step explanation:
ai) The water usage per day is ...
(4 showers/day)(10 min/shower)(5 gal/min) = 200 gal/day
Then the usage per year is ...
(200 gal/day)(365 days/yr) = 73,000 gal/yr
__
aii) The cost of electricity is the cost of heating half the water usage, so is ...
(0.20 kWh/gal)(1/2)(73,000 gal/yr)($0.10/kWh) = $730/yr
__
b) The current daily cost of electricity for heating water is ...
($730/yr)/(365 days/yr) = $2/day
If the cost is cut in half, it will be $1 per day. That means the savings is $1 per day, so it will take 1000 days to recover the $1000 initial cost. (Effectively, the average cost for the first 1000 days is the same as if the water heater had not been replaced.)
