Answer:

  a. 3942 kWh

  b. $473.04

  c. 1314 kWh

  d. $157.68

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>a. </h3>

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

__

<h3>b.</h3>

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

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

__

<h3>c.</h3>

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

__

<h3>d.</h3>

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

  1/3($473.04/yr) = $157.68/yr

Grace had $51 when she browsed an on-line store, which sells a pair of green earrings for $9.00 each plus a one-time $6.00 shipp
vitfil [10]

Answer:

5 Green earrings

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Total amount held = $51

Cost per pair of green earrings = $9

One time shipping fee = $6

How many pairs of green earrings did grace purchase?

Let the number of green earrings purchased = g

Then,

$9*g + $6 = $51

$9g + $6 = $51

$9g = $51 - $6

$9g = $45

g = $45 / $9

g = 5

Hence, the number of green earrings purchased = 5
