The answer to the question above is "630.25 hours" which is the time to recoup the difference in the water heater cost. This problem can be solved using a simple algebra equation which stated as (18*115*0.1/1000)x - (4*220*0.1/1000)x = $75. In this formula, x represents the time to recoup the difference in the water heater cost (Calculation: 0.207x-0.088x=75 --> 0.119x = 75 --> x = 630.25)<span>. </span>
