You can upgrade lighting at your factory to LED bulbs that cost $6.95 each and last an average of 5 years. It costs S3 in labor
marshall27 [118]

Answer:

11.95 dollars

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of one LED bulb = 6.95 dollars

Cost of changing one bulb = 3 dollars

Life of each bulb = 5 years.

In 10 years, only one time after 5 years the bulbs would have been changed

Hence cost of 100 lamps = 695 and

cost of changing once = 500

Total cost = 1195 dollars for 11 years

Divide this by 10 years to get average cost per year

Cost of 100 lamps per year = 1195/100 = 11.95 dollars

A rational number can be written as the ratio of one blank to another and be represented by a repeating or blank decimal. What a
Makovka662 [10]

The answer is a rational number is one integer divided by another, and can be represented in either decimal of fraction form. The explanation behind this is visualize you are using long division to divide one number by one more.  You divide, and then you acquire a remainder. Then you carry down a zero (multiply by ten) and divide again.  Well, there are only so many balances you could perhaps have.  For example, for 5, your choices are 0, 1, 2, 3, and 4.  Sooner or later, you will replicate a remainder, at which fact you will just keep dividing the same method you did last time you saw that remainder -- and that's the reason why it repeats.
