Answer:

Fuel used = 111,303,473,760 MJ/year

Step-by-step explanation:

Power production = Fuel energy * Efficiency

1200 MW = Fuel energy * 0.34

Fuel energy = 1200 MW / 0.34 =3529.41 MW

This means it consumes 3529.41 MJ/s.

Per year, it operates 365 days, 24 hours a day, 3600 seconds an hour.

To calculate the fuel used annualy we have to multiplicate by all these factors

Fuel used = 3529.41 MJ/s * 3600 s/hour * 24 hours/day * 365 days/year

Fuel used = 111,303,473,760 MJ/year

The sum of all the ages of Dylan and Renee is 57 years . 9 yrs ago , Dylans age was 2 times Renee's age. How old is Dylan now?​
Ugo [173]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

let present age of

Dylan=x

Renee=y

x+y=57

9 years ago

x-9=2(y-9)=2y-18

x=2y-18+9=2y-9

so  2y-9+y=57

3y=57+9=66

y=66/3=22

x+22=57

x=57-22=35

Dylan's present age=35 years

A woman bought some large frames for $10 each and some small frames for $5 each add a closeout sale if she bought 20 frames for
vampirchik [111]

Answer:

The quantity of large frames is 7

The quantity of small frames is 13

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The price of each large frames = $ 10

The price of each small frames = $ 5

The total number of both frames bought = 20

The price for both the frames = $ 135

Now,

Let the quantity of large frames = L

And The quantity of small frames = S

So , According to question

The total number of both frames bought = 20

Or, The quantity of large frames + the quantity of small frame = 135

Or, L + S = 20         ......A

And $ 10 L + $ 5 S = $ 135                         ................B

Or, $ 10× ( L + S ) = $ 10× 20

Or, $ 10 L + $ 10 S = $ 200

(  $ 10 L + $ 10 S ) - ( $ 10 L + $ 5 S ) = $ 200 - $ 135

Or , ( $ 10 L - $ 10 L ) + ( $ 10 S - $ 5 S ) = $ 65

Or, 0 + 5 S = 65

∴  S = \frac{65}{5}

I.e S = 13

So, The quantity of small frames = S = 13

Put the Value of S in eq A

So , L + S = 20

Or, L = 20 - S

Or, L = 20 - 13

∴   L = 7

So, The quantity of large frames = L = 7

Hence The quantity of large frames is 7

And   The quantity of small frames is 13   Answer
