USE MATLAB TO SOLVE THIS PROBLEM
In electrical utilities, customers are charged the total number of KWhr (kilo-watt hours) used in a one month period. The equation used is KWhr = Wt/1000 where W = the watts of energy used by an appliance and t is the amount of time (in hours) the appliance was in operation. The constant 1000 converts the result from Watt-hours to Kilowatt-hours. The table below gives data describing the wattage used by a given appliance (A1 through A5) and the amount of time the appliance was in operation for that month.

- Calculate the KWhr used by each individual appliance.
- The total KWhr used by all appliances.
1 Light Bulbs 100 Appliance 2 3 Dishwasher Refrigerator 3600 500 4 HDTV 240 5 Computer 200 Watts Used Time (hours per month) 120 30 120 120 80
