1. A floating, electrical, stock tank heater uses 1500 watts for electric power. The electric company charges you roughly 12 cents per kilowatt-hour of usage. This means that if you use a 1-kilowatt device for 1 hour, the electric company will charge you 12 cents for the electricity. If you use it for 2 hours, you will be charged 24 cents, and so on.
A. During the winter in your area, you plan to use the stock tank heater only at night. A timer will control the heater, so it operates for about 14 hours each night. Write an equation to compute the cost for electricity to run this heater for dnights.
B. Use your equation to find the electrical cost of running the heater for 90 nights.
C. How many days would it take for the electrical cost for running the heater to reach $200?
