Estimate the number of people in the world who are suffering from the common cold on any
given day. (Remember that a person suffers from a cold for about a week, and assume that
the average person catches a cold twice a year. The population of Earth is approximately seven
billion.)

,x =1 (time starts at 1 not 0)
The average electricity consumption of a house in Gainesville is known to be
924 kWh in a month (One month = 30 days). They would like to install solar
panels of 24 % efficiency to generate this electricity. Given that the average
solar power density in Gainesville is 5.47 kWh/m2/day, how much surface area
must the panels occupy? Calculate the result in m² but do not write the unit.
Round off you answer to a whole number (zero decimal place.)
