a business uses two 3kw fires for an average of 20 hours each per week,and six 150watt lights for 30 hours each per week. If the cost of electricity is 7p per unit then determine the weekly cost of electricity and to the business​

Two lamps of each = 3kw×2=6kw

time used every week = 20h

electrical energy consumed = power×time = 20×6= 120kwh= 0.12unit

six bulb= 150×6 = 900kw

time= 30h

power =30×900= 27000kwh =27 unit

Total electrical energy consumed = 27+0.12=27.12unit

1 unit=7p

27.12unit = 27.12 ×7= 189.84 p

Answer:1.029p

Explanation:Two fire sources each of=3kw

Now total power of two sources=2×3kw=6kw

Time taken=20 hrs

Therefore,energy=P×T=6×20

=120kwh=0.12 units

Now,total power dissipated by 6 lights=6×150=900 W=0.9 kw

Time taken=30 hrs

Energy consumed=P×T=30×0.9=27kwh

=0.027 unit

Total energy consumed=0.027+0.12=0.147 units

1 unit=7p

So,cost=7×0.147

=1.029p
