If you're subtracting to add, you must subtract a negative number to be able to solve for x. So 8-(-6+3)=11. x= -6.

First multiply -1 by everything in the parenthesis, so it would be
8 - x - 3 = 11
combine like terms (8 and -3)
5 - x = 11
subtract 5 from both sides
-x = 11-5
-x = 6
divide both sides by -1 and you get
x = -6

. A circulating pump consumes 450 W for 24 hr a day. a. Determine the energy consumed for a one-year period. b. Calculate the ut

Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

a. 3942 kWh

b. $473.04

c. 1314 kWh

d. $157.68

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 1000 W in 1 kW, so 450 W = 0.450 kW. The energy used per day is ...

(0.45 kW)(24 h) = 10.8 kWh . . . . energy per day

Then in a 365-day year, the energy used is

(365 da/yr)(10.8 kWh/da) = 3942 kWh/yr

At the rate of $0.12/kWh, the cost of running the pump is ...

($0.12/kWh)(3942 kWh/yr) = $473.04/yr

Switching the pump off for 1/3 of the time will save 1/3 of the energy found in part (a):

1/3(3942 kWh) = 1314 kWh . . . . energy saved by switching off the pump

The savings will be 1/3 of the cost of running the pump full time:

1/3($473.04/yr) = $157.68/yr
