Answer:

Option C -  3.18\ BTUs/ft^3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : An exercise class had 18 people. If each person produced 1,900 BTUs of body heat during the class and the room is 28 ft × 32 ft × 12 ft.

To find : How many BTUs per cubic foot did they produce?

Solution :  

Number of people = 18

BTU produced by each person = 1900

Total BTU produced by 18 persons is given by

18\times 1900=34200

Dimension of the room is given by

Length of room = 28 ft

Width of room = 32 ft

Height of room = 12 ft

So, Volume of room is given by

\text{Volume}=\text{Length}\times \text{Breadth}\times \text{Height}

V=28\times 32\times 12

V=10752\ ft^3

So, Number of BTU's per cubic foot is given by

n=\frac{BTU}{V}

n=\frac{34200}{10752}

n=3.18\ BTUs/ft^3

Therefore, Option C is correct.

3.18 BTUs per cubic foot did they produce.

(18*1900)/(28*32*12)

34200/10752

≈3.18 BTU/ft^3

So C) is the correct answer.

the relationship between the number of $4 lunches you buy with a $100 school lunch card and the money remaining on the card. Is

A solid line, because each lunch cost the same, and the price does not differ from lunch to lunch. So, 100 - 4 = 96  |  96 - 4 = 92, etc.

Bryan’s monthly electric bill is determined by adding a flat administration fee to the product of the number of kilowatt hours o
Sophie [7]
We will form the equations for this problem:
(1) 1100*y + z = 113
(2) 1500*y + z = 153
z = ? Monthly administration fee is notated with z, and that is the this problem's question.
Number of kilowatt hours of electricity used are numbers 1100 and 1500 respectively.
Cost per kilowatt hour is notated with y, but its value is not asked in this math problem, but we can calculate it anyway.
The problem becomes two equations with two unknowns, it is a system, and can be solved with method of replacement:
(1) 1100*y + z = 113
(2) 1500*y + z = 153
----------------------------
(1) z = 113 - 1100*y [insert value of z (right side) into (2) equation instead of z]:
(2) 1500*y + (113 - 1100*y) = 153
-------------------------------------------------
(1) z = 113 - 1100*y
(2) 1500*y + 113 - 1100*y = 153
------------------------------------------------
(1) z = 113 - 1100*y
(2) 400*y + 113 = 153
------------------------------------------------
(1) z = 113 - 1100*y
(2) 400*y = 153 - 113
------------------------------------------------
(1) z = 113 - 1100*y
(2) 400*y = 40
------------------------------------------------
(1) z = 113 - 1100*y
(2) y = 40/400
------------------------------------------------
(1) z = 113 - 1100*y
(2) y = 1/10
------------------------------------------------
if we insert the obtained value of y into (1) equation, we get the value of z:
(1) z = 113 - 1100*(1/10)
(1) z = 113 - 110
(1) z = 3 dollars is the monthly fee.
