A 120 watt light bulb uses about 0.1 kilowatt of electricity per hour.if electricity costs $0.20 per kilowatt hour. Let's solve how much does it cost to have a bulb on for an hour. => 120 watt = 0.1 kilowatt per hour which costs 0.20 per kilowatt per => 0.1 kilowatt per hour * 0.20 = 0.02 dollars in an hour.

Answer:

$0.02 is the cost to have the bulb on for an hour

Step-by-step explanation:

A 120 watt light bulb uses about 0.1 kilowatt of electricity per hour

We can assume 1 kilowatt per hour = 1 unit

So total units of electricity consumed in 1 hour = 0.1 × 1

= 0.1 kilowatt hour or 0.1 unit

Since cost of one unit or 1 kilowatt hour is = $0.20 per unit or kilowatt hour.

Therefore, total cost to have this bulb on for an hour = Number of units consumed by the light bulb × per unit cost

= 0.1×0.20

= $0.02

$0.02 is the cost to have the bulb on for an hour.

The current population of a town is 10,000 and its growth in years can be represented by P(t) = 10,000(0.2)^t, where t is the ti
DiKsa [7]

Answer:

1) 20%

2) Choice a.

Step-by-step explanation:

P(t)=10000(0.2)^t

1) P(0) is the population initially.

P(1) is the population after a year.

\frac{P(1)}{P(0)} represents the population increase factor.

So let's evaluate that fraction:

\frac{P(1)}{P(0)}

\frac{10000(0.2)^1}{10000(0.2)^0}

\frac{0.2^1}{0.2^0}=\frac{0.2}{1}=0.2

0.2=20%

2) Let's figure out the population growth in terms of months instead of years.

P(t)=10000(0.2)^{t}

We want t to represent months.

A full year is 12 months, in a full year we have that P(1)=10000(0.2)^1=10000(0.2)=2000

So we want a new P such that P(12)=2000 since 12 months equals a year.

Let's look at the functions given to see which gives us this:

a) P(12)=10000(0.87449)^{12}=2000 \text{approximately}

b) P(12)=10000(0.87449)^{12(12)}=0 \text{ approximately}

c) P(12)=10000(0.87449)^{\frac{1}{12}}=9889 \text{approximately}

d) P(12)=10000(0.87449)^{12+12}=400 \text{approximately}

So a is the function we want.

Also another way to look at this:

P(t)=10000(.2)^t where t is in years.

P(t)=10000(.2^\frac{1}{12})^t where t is in months.

And .2^\frac{1}{12}=0.874485 \text{approximately}

A student is asked to find a polynomial f(x) of degree four with the zeros 2, -3, 0, and -7. What factors would the student mult
lord [1]

Answer:

(x-2), (x+3),x and (x + 7)

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the zeros of the polynomial are 2, -3, 0 and -7.

Let’s consider a case of a quadratic equation where x = 5 is a solution. This means that x + 5 is a factor of that quadratic equation.

Now, let’s apply same approach to this polynomial. If x = 2 is a solution, then x -2 is a factor. If x = -3, then, x + 3 is a factor. If x = 0, this means x itself is a solution and lastly, if x = -7 is a solution, that means x + 7 is a factor.

Thus, the factors to multiply together are; (x-2), (x+3),x and (x + 7)

If k is parallel to l find the value of a and the value of b.
kipiarov [429]

Answer:

a = 30

b = 40

C

Step-by-step explanation:

This requires that you use a proportion.

a / (a + 15) = 40 / 60

The small triangle's sides are in proportion to the large triangles sides.

Reduce the right. Divide top and bottom by 20

a/(a + 15) = 40/20 // 60/20

a/(a + 15) = 2/3                    

Cross multiply

3a = 2(a + 15)            Remove the brackets on the right.

3a = 2a + 30

Subtract 2a from both sides

3a-2a = 30

a = 30

Find B

b is done exactly the same way.

b/(b+20) = 2/3

3b = 2b + 40

3b - 2b = 40

b = 40
