Answer:
It will take nine years and four months for the refrigerator to pay for itself.
Step-by-step explanation:
The new refrigerator which costs $1200, saves the family 22% annually in energy cost.
Since the old refrigerator costs $580 to run, we want to determine how many years it will take for 22% of $580 per year to make $1200.
22% of $580
= 580 × 0.22
= 127.6
That is, it saved then $127.6 per year.
Now,
$1200/127.6
≈ 9.4
Which means, it will take 9 years and 4 months for the refrigerator to pay for itself.
How do we graph anything? Make a table of values for x and y and then plot each point. After plotting each point on the xy-plane, connect each point with a straight line or curve (depending on the function).
In this case, we must first isolate y.
y = (-4/3)x + 8y
y - 8y = (-4/3)x
-7y = (-4/3)x
y = (-4/3)x ÷ (-7)
y = (4/21)x
Now follow the steps above.
