Answer: 15

Step-by-step explanation:

As defined in the lesson on Unit Rate and Proportionality, the unit rate is the rate of change in a relationship where the rate is per 1. The rate of change is the ratio between the x and y values in a table. Another term for the rate of change for proportional relationships is the constant of proportionality.

A large appliance such as a water heater is only running when it has clicked on and is actually heating water. The time your wat
mafiozo [28]

a) Total cost (per day) ≈ $1.40

​b) Total cost (per year) ≈ $510

c) New annual cost = $327

d) The number of years that the water heater pays for itself is; approximately 4 years

<h3>How to calculate Energy Bill?</h3>

Wattage per hour = 4200 Watts per hour

Number of hours per day = 3 hours

Cost per unit = $0.11 per kilowatt-hour

Savings rate = 36%

Cost water heater = $1,100

a) The total wattage is the product of the wattage per hour and the number of hours;

Total wattage (per day) = Wattage per hour × Number of hours

= 4,200 watts per hour × 3 hours

= 12,600 watt-hours

= 12.6 kilowatt-hours

​

The total cost is then the product of the total wattage and the cost per unit:

Total cost (per day) = Total wattage × Cost per unit

Total cost (per day) = 12.6 kilowatt-hours × $0.11 per kilowatt-hour

Total cost (per day) = $1.386

Total cost (per day) ≈ $1.40

​

b) The total cost in a year is the product of the total cost in a day and the number of days in a year. There are 365 days in a year (assuming no leap year).

Total cost (per year) = Total cost (per day) × Number of days in a year

Total cost (per year) = $1.40 × 365

Total cost (per year) = $511

Total cost (per year) ≈ $510

​

c) We are told that this new water heater saves 36% of annual cost. Thus;

Amount saved = 36% * 510 = $183.6

Thus;

New annual cost = $510 - $183 = $327

d) The number of years that the water heater pays for itself is;

1100/327 = 3.36 or approximately 4 years

A rectangle sand box has a length of 5 and 1/3 feet and a width of 3 and 3/4 feet. What is the perimeter?
Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer:

Perimeter of rectangle = ⇒ 18\frac{1}{6} feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Length of a rectangular sand box = 5\frac{1}{3}\ feet

Width of the box = 3\frac{3}{4}\ feet

Perimeter of a rectangle = 2(l+w)

where l represents length of rectangle and w represents width of the rectangle.

Substituting values given for length and width.

Perimeter of sand box = 2(5\frac{1}{3}+3\frac{3}{4})\ feet

Simplifying by adding fractions:

⇒  2(5+3+\frac{1}{3}+\frac{3}{4})\ feet (Adding whole numbers and fractions separately)

⇒  2(8+\frac{1}{3}+\frac{3}{4}) feet

Whole number 8 can be written as \frac{8}{1}

⇒  2(\frac{8}{1}+\frac{1}{3}+\frac{3}{4}) feet

To add fractions we take LCD for the denominators 3,4,1.

LCD for 3 and 4 = 12 as its the least common multiple of 3,4,1.

Making denominators =12 by multiplying numerator an denominator with the corresponding numbers

⇒  2(\frac{8\times 12}{1\times 12}+\frac{1\times 4}{3\times 4}+\frac{3\times 3}{4\times 3}) feet

⇒  2(\frac{96}{12}+\frac{4}{12}+\frac{9}{12}) feet

Then we simply add numerators.

⇒  2(\frac{96+4+9}{12}) feet

⇒  2(\frac{109}{12}) feet

⇒  2\times \frac{109}{12} feet

⇒  \frac{218}{12} feet

Writing fraction as a mixed number by dividing 218 by 12 and writing quotient as whole number and remainder as numerator with divisor as denominator.

⇒ 18\frac{2}{12} feet

Simplifying fractions to simplest form.

⇒ 18\frac{1}{6} feet

Perimeter =⇒ 18\frac{1}{6} feet  (Answer)

Please help, i have no idea how to do this
notsponge [240]

Answer:

  8 square units

Step-by-step explanation:

The figure is a trapezoid. The area of it is given by the formula ...

  A = (1/2)(b1 +b2)h

where b1 and b2 are the lengths of the parallel bases and h is the distance between them.

Your figure shows the base lengths to be 5 and 3, and their separation to be 2. Filling the numbers in the formula, we have ...

  A = (1/2)(5 +3)(2) = (1/2)(8)(2) = 4·2 = 8

The area of the figure is 8 square units.

_____

The right-pointing arrows on the horizontal lines identify those lines as being parallel. The right-angle indicator and the 2 next to the dotted line indicate the perpendicular distance between the parallel lines is 2 units.
