On a particular day, the wind added 4 miles per hour to Alfonso’s rate when he was cycling with the wind and subtracted 4 miles

per hour from his rate on his return trip. Alfonso found that in the same amount of time he could cycle 68 miles with the wind, he could go only 30 miles against the wind. What is his normal bicycling speed with no wind?

d = r · t ⇒ t = d/r

going

t = 54/(r + 4)

coming

t = 30/(r - 4)

54/(r + 4) = 30/(r - 4) times are equal

54(r - 4) = 30(r + 4) product means/extremes

54r - 216 = 30r + 120 distribute

24r - 216 = 120 subtract 30r from both sides

24r = 336 add 216 to both sides

r = 14 divide both sides by 24

Alfonso bikes at 24 mph.

Which is the most economic way to lessen electric consumption?
AysviL [449]

Answer:

1) c. Use only appliances to do the most important task in the house.

2) b. 112kwh

3) b. 111kwh

Step-by-step explanation:

Energy can be defined as the ability (capacity) to do work and it's measured in Joules. The various forms of energy are solar energy, chemical energy, thermal energy, wind energy, nuclear energy, electrical energy, etc.

Power can be defined as the energy required to do work per unit time.

Mathematically, it is given by the formula;

Power = \frac {Energy}{time}

Energy consumption is the total amount of power used by an electronic device per unit time and it's measured in Watt-hour or Kilowatt-hour.

Mathematically, it is given by the formula;

Energy = power * time

Generally, the most economic way to lessen electric consumption is by ensuring only the important electrical appliances are used at all times.

2. Given the following data;

Previous reading = 2156 KWh

Present reading = 2268 KWh

To find how many kilowatt-hour was consumed;

Energy consumption = present reading - previous reading

Energy consumption = 2268 - 2156

<em>Energy consumption = 112 KWh</em>

3. Given the following data;

Previous reading = 5512 KWh

Present reading = 5623 KWh

To find the electrical consumption of Falogme Family;

Electrical consumption = present reading - previous reading

Electrical consumption = 5623 - 5512

<em>Electrical consumption = 111 KWh</em>
