Answer:

4.1 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that The Lisbon’s new heat pump cost $4,500. They bought it to replace their old furnace and air conditioner which cost about $2,800 a year to run. The heat pump will save them approximately 39% a year.

Yearly cost was 2800 at first and the pump will save 39% of 2800. So annual saving with new heat pump will be:

$\frac{39}{100}*2800=0.39*2800$

Let x be the number of years in which heat pump will pay for itself, so saving in x years will be:

$0.39*2800*x$

Now let us equate the savings by new heat pump with cost of heat pump to find the number of years (x).

$0.39*2800*x=4500$

$1092*x=4500$

$x=\frac{4500}{1092}$

$x=4.1208791208791209\approx 4.1$

Therefore, the heat pump will pay for itself in 4.1 years.

12 down is decagon. 7 down is mode. I think 5 down is slope. 13 down is prime. 3 down might be variable. 10 down should be equation. Hope these are right!

$\large\begin{array}{l} \textsf{From the picture, we get}\\\\ \mathsf{tan\,\theta=\dfrac{2}{3}}\\\\ \mathsf{\dfrac{sin\,\theta}{cos\,\theta}=\dfrac{2}{3}}\\\\ \mathsf{3\,sin\,\theta=2\,cos\,\theta}\qquad\mathsf{(i)} \end{array}$

$\large\begin{array}{l} \textsf{Square both sides of \mathsf{(i)} above:}\\\\ \mathsf{(3\,sin\,\theta)^2=(2\,cos\,\theta)^2}\\\\ \mathsf{9\,sin^2\,\theta=4\,cos^2\,\theta}\qquad\quad\textsf{(but }\mathsf{cos^2\theta=1-sin^2\,\theta}\textsf{)}\\\\ \mathsf{9\,sin^2\,\theta=4\cdot (1-sin^2\,\theta)}\\\\ \mathsf{9\,sin^2\,\theta=4-4\,sin^2\,\theta}\\\\ \mathsf{9\,sin^2\,\theta+4\,sin^2\,\theta=4} \end{array}$

$\large\begin{array}{l} \mathsf{13\,sin^2\,\theta=4}\\\\ \mathsf{sin^2\,\theta=\dfrac{4}{13}}\\\\ \mathsf{sin\,\theta=\sqrt{\dfrac{4}{13}}}\\\\ \textsf{(we must take the positive square root, because }\theta \textsf{ is an}\\\textsf{acute angle, so its sine is positive)}\\\\ \mathsf{sin\,\theta=\dfrac{2}{\sqrt{13}}} \end{array}$

$\large\begin{array}{l} \textsf{From (i), we find the value of }\mathsf{cos\,\theta:}\\\\ \mathsf{3\,sin\,\theta=2\,cos\,\theta}\\\\ \mathsf{cos\,\theta=\dfrac{3}{2}\,sin\,\theta}\\\\ \mathsf{cos\,\theta=\dfrac{3}{\diagup\!\!\!\! 2}\cdot \dfrac{\diagup\!\!\!\! 2}{\sqrt{13}}}\\\\ \mathsf{cos\,\theta=\dfrac{3}{\sqrt{13}}}\\\\ \end{array}$
