Answer:
12010
Explanation:
Given:
power time
4,370 25
4,420 22
4,150 26
To find: difference in energy used between the dryer that uses the greatest amount of energy and the dryer that uses the least amount
Solution:
Energy = power × time
For clothes dryer x:
energy = 4370 × 25 = 109250
For clothes dryer y:
energy = 4420 × 22 = 97240
For clothes dryer z:
energy = 4150 × 26 = 107900
Dryer x uses the greatest amount of energy and dryer y uses the least amount of energy.
Difference in energy used between the dryer that uses the greatest amount of energy and the dryer that uses the least amount = 109250 - 97240 = 12010
