Answer 1

Answer:

$189.69.

Step-by-step explanation:

Electricity: 255 kWh * $0.15/kWh = $38.25

Gas: 1010 ft³ * $1/100 ft³ = $10.10

Water: 445 gallons * $0.03/10 gallons = $1.34

Phone: $40

Internet: $100

Now, add these costs together:

$38.25 (electricity) + $10.10 (gas) + $1.34 (water) + $40 (phone) + $100 (internet) = $189.69
John's monthly utility bill is $189.69.
