Answer:

payback period is 9.4785 ≅ 9.5 years  

Explanation:

BTU stands for British thermal units and MCF stands for the volume of 1,000 cubic feet.

We know that one thousand cubic feet (Mcf) of natural gas equals 1.037 million Btu.

Difference between heat loss before and after installation = (42-28) millions BTU =  14 millions BTU

14 million BTU is equivalent to --

1.037 million BTU = 1 MCF

1 million BTU = (1/1.037) MCF

14 million BTU = (1/1.037) x 14 MCF = 13.5004 MCF

Cost of 13.5004 MCF = = $8.94 x 13.5004  = $120.6935

Pay back period = (1144/120.6935) = 9.4785

Therefore, her payback period is 9.4785 ≅ 9.5 years

Katarina [22]

Answer:

an area within the visual field wherein the cell will fire if the target appears.

Explanation:

In order to accomplish this, the researcher will need to specify an area within the visual field wherein the cell will fire if the target appears. This is because there are about 100 billion neurons in the human brain and each of them fires at a speed of about 200 times per second, thus making it impossible to define the receptive field of a particular neuron without highlighting a specific area of that neuron and visualizing that specific neuron.
