Question

A company plans to reduce the amount of energy used each year. This table shows the company's plan.
 
Year
Amount of Energy
Used (kilowatt hour)
1 1,000,000 2 900,000 3 810,000 4 792,000

Answer 1

It looks like you have provided a table showing the planned reduction in energy usage over the first four years for a company. Based on the data provided, here is a summary of the energy amounts used each year:

| Year | Amount of Energy Used (kilowatt hours) |
|------|---------------------------------------|
| 1 | 1,000,000 |
| 2 | 900,000 |
| 3 | 810,000 |
| 4 | 792,000 |

To analyze this data, we can calculate the year-over-year reduction in energy usage:

1. **Year 1 to Year 2:**
- Reduction: 1,000,000 - 900,000 = 100,000 kWh
- Percentage Reduction: (100,000 / 1,000,000) * 100 = 10%

2. **Year 2 to Year 3:**
- Reduction: 900,000 - 810,000 = 90,000 kWh
- Percentage Reduction: (90,000 / 900,000) * 100 = 10%

3. **Year 3 to Year 4:**
- Reduction: 810,000 - 792,000 = 18,000 kWh
- Percentage Reduction: (18,000 / 810,000) * 100 ≈ 2.22%

### Summary of Reductions:

- **Year 1 to Year 2:** 100,000 kWh (10% reduction)
- **Year 2 to Year 3:** 90,000 kWh (10% reduction)
- **Year 3 to Year 4:** 18,000 kWh (approximately 2.22% reduction)
