Calculate the payback time if she insulates the loft with 300 mm insulation when: area of loft space = 100m^2 cost of roll of 100 mm thick loft insulation that covers 8.3m^2 = £20 cost of putting the insulation into the loft = £120 savings per year = £80 per 100 mm Payback Time = installation cost divided by annual savings

Payback time = 0.0075

Explanation: Since payback time is calculated as:

payback time =

First determine the installation cost:

100 mm thick insulation covers 8.3 m². Then 300 mm covers 24.9 m².

To cover 8.3m² costs £20. Then, the cost to cover 24.9 m² is:

cost =

cost = £60

The cost of putting the insulation is £120, so the total cost is:

total cost = £60 + £120

total cost = £180

Savings per year per 100 mm thick is £80. For 300 mm, the value of annual savings is:

savings =

savings = 240

payback time =

payback time =

payback time = 0.75

it is necessary to balance equations in order to get the proper amount of reactants as well as products in order not to make a miscalculation.

you cannot change the subscripts as that would change the substance itself. for instance, diatomic elements such as h2 only have the subscript two when a gas. another example would be so4, if you were to change the subscript, the element would no longer be sulfate.

we change the coefficients instead as that only changes the number of molecules rather than the substance itself.

hope this !

the atomic mass is the bottom number on the element.
