Answer:
More than enough solar energy (8.2 million quad BTUs, 1 quad = 2.9 x1011 kWh) hits Earth's surface each year to meet all of societies' needs. Currently we use about 400 quads per year to run our society. Good building design allows passive use of sunlight to heat homes. Simple solar collectors are used to heat water and cook food. As useful as it is for these purposes, thermal energy from sunlight is still a low quality energy compared to electricity. Computers, most machinery, light bulbs, subway trains, and much more all require electricity. It is possible to turn thermal energy from the sun into electricity. In this unit we will examine how.
. We will also examine how to make electricity directly from light using the photovoltaic cells.
Because action and reaction have different points of application and act on different objects.

In equation form it reads: 0=24-5x
You can isolate the variable by subtracting 24 from both sides to get -24=5x.
Now all that has to be done is divide both sides by -5, which will result in -4.8=x
2.85 x 10^2 (ten to the second power)
