Answer:
8.6
Step-by-step explanation:
The square root of 74 is 8.602325, which rounded to the nearest tenth, is 8.6
In order from least to greatest:
5/10 , 7/12 , 4/6
You have to find a common denominator of all 3 numbers which is 60 and then you proceed with the next steps.
Suppose:
C=cost
c=cost per kilo-watt hour
w=number of watts
h=number of hours
thus
C=kwhc
where:
k=constant of proportionality:
k=C/(whc)
but
C=15 when w=6000, h=10/60=1/6 hours, c=7.5 cents per kw/h
thus
k=15/(6000*1/6*7.5)
k=0.002
thus:
C=0.002(whc)
hence:
when
h=70*2=140=140/6=70/3 hours the cost will be:
C=0.002(6000*70/3*7.5)
C=2100 cents
C=$21
