The image above is a neat copy of a photo of an electricity meter for a domestic solar array. The display shows the energy we sold to the electricity company on a winter's
day. Between 7 a.m. and 5 p.m., how many kilowatt hours did this household sell to the electricity company? E = kW.hrs. Give your answer to two significant
figures.
Each box is 100 W high and 1 hr wide.
