Answer:
The cost of electricity for 100 W power bulb = $ 32.85
Cost of electricity for 0.025 W fluorescent bulb = $ 8.2125
Explanation:
Cost of electricity = $ 0.18 per KW-H
Time = 5 hour per day
Bulb power = 100 W = 0.1 KW
Fluorescent bulb power = 25 W = 0.025 KW
(a) Cost of electricity for 100 W power bulb
0.1 × 5 × 365 × 0.18 = $ 32.85
(b) Cost of electricity for 0.025 W fluorescent bulb
0.025 × 5 × 365 × 0.18 = $ 8.2125
Therefore the cost of electricity for 100 W power bulb = $ 32.85
Cost of electricity for 0.025 W fluorescent bulb = $ 8.2125
