<span>1)Consumption: 875 kWh / month
2) New rate:
- 7.5 cents / kWh for the first 600 kWh
- 13.0 cents / kWh the next 600 kWh
3) Calculation:
600 kWh * 7.5 cents/ kWh + (875 kWh - 600 kWh) * 13.0 cents / kWh.
4500 cents + 3575 cents = 8075 cents = $ 80.75, which rounded to the nearest dolar is $ 81.
Answer: option d. $81.

Answer:
Metaphor
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a comparison between the ocean and a magnet, but it did not use like or as, so it is a metaphor.
Answer:
m=2/5
b=3.8
Step-by-step explanation:
To find slope you need to use slope formula which is (y2-y1)/(x2-x1) so you need two points from the table and plug them into this. I'll use the first two points (-2, 3) and (-1, 5)
(5-3)/(3--2)
2/5
our slope is 2/5(m)
now to find the y int(b)
we have out slope intercept formula which is y=mx+b
plug in our slope
y=2/5x+b
now take a random point from our tabell and apply it to our equation I'll use (-2, 3) again.
3=2/5(-2)+b
3=-4/5+b
3=-0.8+b
add 0.8 to each side
3.8=b
b=3.8
Alright, so the population of the herd is 220 in 2012. This means that when it decreased by 10 percent in 2014, 10 percent of the population is taken away. To find 10 percent of the population, we simply multiply 220 by 0.1 due to that to get a percentage as a decimal, we simply divide the percentage amount by 100. In addition, as the elk population in 2012 represents 100% of the elk population that we’re starting with (100%=1, or the whole thing), 10% subtracted from 100% is 90% of the population, or 220*0.9 as the population in 2013. To get the population in 2014, we have to multiply the population in 2013 by 0.9 similar to how we got from 2012 to 2013. This means we multiply (220*0.9)*0.9=178.2, which rounds down to 178 as the next number, 2, is less than 5. If that 2 were to be 5 or higher, we would round up to 179.
