An electric vehicle charging station delivers energy at a constant rate of kk kilowatt-hours (kWh) per hour. If a vehicle receives a total of 48 kWh48\text{ kWh} of energy after charging for 1.51.5 hours, which of the following equations can be solved to find kk?

  1. 1.5k=481.5k = 48Cevap
  2. B
    k1.5=48\frac{k}{1.5} = 48
  3. C
    k+1.5=48k + 1.5 = 48
  4. D
    k1.5=48k - 1.5 = 48
  5. E
    48k=1.548k = 1.5

Cevap

1.5k=481.5k = 48
Multiplying the charging rate of kk kWh per hour by the charging duration of 1.51.5 hours yields the total energy of 4848 kWh. Thus, 1.5k=481.5k = 48 correctly models the situation.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the relationship between rate, time, and total amount.
Total energy = (charging rate) ×\times (time in hours)
The unit rate in kWh per hour multiplied by hours yields total kWh.
2
Substitute the given values into the relationship.
48=k×1.548 = k \times 1.5, or 1.5k=481.5k = 48
The total energy is 4848, the rate is kk, and time is 1.51.5 hours.
