a man uses a 900 watt electric iron to press his clothes for an average of 4 hours a week for five weeks if the cost of an elect
ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

54 Kobo

Explanation:

Units of <u>electricity</u> are measured in kilowatt hours (kWh).

Given information:

  • 900 watt electric iron
  • Appliance usage = 4 hours a week for 5 weeks
  • Unit cost of electricity = 3 Kobo per kWh

<h3><u>Step 1</u></h3>

Convert the wattage of the electric iron from watts to kilowatts.

1000 watts (W) = 1 kilowatt (kW)

⇒ 900 watts = 1 ÷ 1000 = 0.9 kilowatts

This means that the power consumption of the electric iron is 0.9 kW per hour of use.

<h3><u>Step 2</u></h3>

Total hours spent pressing clothes:

= 4 hours per week for 5 weeks

= 4 × 5

= 20 hours

<u>Total power consumption</u>:

= number of kW × number of hours

= 0.9 × 20

= 18 kWh

<h3><u>Step 3</u></h3>

To find the <u>total cost</u>, multiply the total kWh by the cost per kWh:

⇒ Cost = 18 × 3 = 54 Kobo

(1.08×10-3)(9.3×10-4)
ira [324]
First you do the first parenthesis, (1.08 x 10 - 3) and you do it in the order of operations! (parenthesis, exponents, multiplication/division, add/subtract) to get 7.8. Then you take the second parenthesis (9.3 x 10 - 4) and do the same thing to get 89! You then times 7.8 by 89 to get 694.2! If it needs more elaboration just ask ^.^
