Answer:

It costs Laura $ 5,184.86 to heat her house one day.

A 75 watt lightbulb should be around 222 hours to consume a dollar in electricity.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a kilowatt hour means 1 kilowatt of electricity used continuously for 1 hr, and the electric utility company in Laura's town charges $ 0.06001 for each kilowatt hour used, and Laura heats her house with three electric heaters that each use 1200 watts, to determine how much does it cost to heat a house in one day and how many hours would a 75 watt lightbulb have to stay on to result in one dollar for electricity charges the following calculations must be performed:

(3 x 1200 x 24) x 0.06001 = X

(3600 x 24) x 0.06001 = X

86400 x 0.06001 = X

5,184.86 = X

Therefore, it costs Laura $ 5,184.86 to heat her house one day.

1 watt = 0.001 kilowatt

75 watt = 0.075 kilowatt

1 / 0.075 = 13.333

1 / 0.06001 = 16,663

13,333 x 16,663 = 222.18

Therefore, a 75 watt lightbulb should be around 222 hours to consume a dollar in electricity.

Given
Present investment, P = 22000
APR, r = 0.0525
compounding time = 10 years
Future amount, A 

A. compounded annually
n=10*1=10
i=r=0.0525
A=P(1+i)^n
=22000(1+0.0525)^10
=36698.11

B. compounded quarterly
n=10*4=40
i=r/4=0.0525/4
A=P(1+i)^n
=22000*(1+0.0525/4)^40
=37063.29


Therefore, by compounding quarterly, she will get, at the end of 10 years investment, an additional amount of
37063.29-36698.11
=$365.18
