Answer:

The complete answer is explained below.

Step-by-step explanation:

The problem is demanding to simply determine the number of years each color light would last.

We know the following information from the question:

  • As it is clear that a red light remains TURNED ON 50% of the time.
  • Green remains TURNED ON 42% of the time
  • Yellow remains TURNED ON 8% of the time.

Also the bulbs for each color are LED and are designed to last 100,000 hours. So, each light does last 100,000 hours.

lets make conversions

As

[tex]1\:day\:=\:24\:hours[/tex]  

[tex]1\:year\:=\:365\:days[/tex]

Dividing [tex]100,000[/tex] hours by [tex]24[/tex] hours would bring [tex]4166.67[/tex] days

Dividing [tex]4166.67[/tex] days by [tex]365[/tex] days would bring [tex]11.4[/tex] years, meaning 11 years and 4 months.

Keywords: light, conversion, day, hours
