A house has ten 40W and five 100W bulbs. How much will it cost the owner of the house to keep them lit for 10 hours if the cost of a unit is 5N?

A.

N90

B.

N50

C.

N45

D.

N5

Correct answer is C

P = 40 x 10 + 100 x 5

P = 400 + 500 = 900W

Cost = 900×10×51000

Cost = N45

A.

1.5x10-11N

B.

1.5x10-12N

C.

1.5x10-13N
