Answer:
The amount Trevor's family pay per minute on shower water is $0.005.
Step-by-step explanation:
The cost of water is,
Cost = $0.20/liter
Amount of water used over the entire month:
Amount of water used = 72 liters
Compute the total water cost as follows:
Total water cost = Amount of water used × Cost
= 72 × 0.20
= $14.4/liter
The average number of minutes each person showered is:
Average number of minutes = 480 minutes.
The number of people in Trevor's house:
N = 6
Compute the total amount of time the 6 person showered as follows:
Total amount of time = Average number of minutes × N
= 480 × 6
= 2880 minutes
Compute the pay per minute on shower water as follows:
Pay per minute on water = Total water cost ÷ Total amount of time
= $14.4 ÷ 2880
= $0.005
Thus, the amount Trevor's family pay per minute on shower water is $0.005.
Here's a way to do it.
Let 4e +2 = 5n +1 . . . . . . for some integer n
Then e = (5n -1)/4 = n + (n -1)/4
We want (n-1)/4 to be an integer, so let it be integer m.
... m = (n -1)/4
... 4m = n -1
... 4m +1 = n
Substituting this into our expression for e gives
... e = (5(4m+1) -1)/4 = (20m +4)/4 = 5m +1
e = 5m+1 for any integer m
It should be a positive 5 not a negative so the error was made at the end because u divide
