Activity 4.
20 ° ,70 ° ,110 °

Activity 5.
1. 3:50 pm
2. 1555 hrs – 1115 hrs = 4 hrs, 40 minutes or 4.67 hours
3. S = d/t = 2839 km / 4.67 hrs = 607.92 kph

Activity 6.
1. In order to determine whether he should bring a sweater or not, Zale needs to compare the average
temperature in NYC to the temperature he is used to which is the average temperature in Cebu. He should also
express both the average temperature in NYC and in Cebu in the same units for comparison.
2. The average temperature in Cebu is between 24 – 32 C. Since the average temperature in NYC is 59 F
which is equivalent to 15 C, Zale should probably bring a sweater since the NYC temperature is way below the
temperature he is used to. Better yet, he should bring a jacket just to be safe.

Activity 7.
1. What was the initial meter reading? final meter reading? The initial reading is 40493 kWh. For the first dial
from the left, the dial hand is on the number 4 so you look at the dial immediately to the right which is the second dial.
Since the dial hand of the second dial is past zero already, then the reading for the first dial is 4. For the second dial,
since the dial hand is between 0 and 1 then the reading for the second dial is 0. For the third dial from the left, the dial
hand is on the number 5 so you look at the dial immediately to the right which is the fourth dial. Since the dial hand of
the fourth dial has not yet passed zero, then the reading for the third dial is 4. The final reading is 40515 kWh. 2
2. Final reading – initial reading = 40515 kWh – 40493 kWh = 22 kWh
3. Electric bill = total consumption x electricity charge = 22 kWh x P9.50 / kWh = P209
