Renu had one CFL and one LED bulb. The CFL is of 8W. If the ratio of the power consumption of the LED bulbs to the CFL bulb is 3:2, then which LED she have?

Respuesta :

Lanuel

Answer:

x = 12W

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = power consumption of the LED bulbs.

Writing the ratio as a fraction;

[tex] \frac{LED}{CFL} = \frac{3}{2} = \frac{x}{8}[/tex]

Cross multiplying, we have;

[tex] 24 = 2x [/tex]

[tex] x = \frac{24}{2}[/tex]

x = 12

Therefore, the power consumption of the LED bulbs is 12W.

x = 12W

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = power consumption of the LED bulbs.

Writing the ratio as a fraction;

[tex] \frac{LED}{CFL} = \frac{3}{2} = \frac{x}{8}[/tex]

Cross multiplying, we have;

[tex] 24 = 2x [/tex]

[tex] x = \frac{24}{2}[/tex]

x = 12

Therefore, the power consumption of the LED bulbs is 12W.

Ratio; [tex] \frac{LED}{CFL} = \frac{3}{2} = \frac{24}{8}[/tex]
