Answer:

I. Consumed energy = 4.5Kwh

II. Total cost = 3375 Dirhams

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following data;

Power = 1500W

Time = 3 hours

To find the energy consumption;

Energy = power * time

Substituting into the equation, we have;

Energy consumption = 1500 * 3

Energy consumption = 4500 watt-hour = 4.5Kwh (1 Kilowatts is equal to 1000 watts)

To find the total cost;

Daily cost = Energy consumption * cost

Daily cost = 4.5 * 25

Daily cost = 112.5 Dirham

Therefore, monthly cost = 112.5 * 30

Monthly cost = 3375 Dirham.
