Alfredo deDarke sleeps with a 7.5-Watt night light bulb on. He turns it on before getting in bed and turns it off 8 hours later. Determine the amount of energy used during one evening in units of kiloWatt•hours. Electrical energy costs 9.7027 pesos per kh-hr where Alfredo lives. Determine the annual (365 days) cost of this practice of using a 7.5-Watt night light. Determine the annual savings if Alfredo replaced his 7.5-Watt incandescent night light by a 0.5-Watt LED night light.

You have an LED night light without a photocell control with the following information: It draws 0.3 Watts continuously. It is always on--24 hours per day. Based on this information, we can now calculate the energy used by this nightlight in one year. For this problem we will assume a year to consist of 365 days. (It is not a leap year.) Calculate the energy used by this night light in one year. Group of answer choices 0.1095 kW-hrs 0.365 kW-hrs 0.003 kW-hrs 2.628 kW-hrs
