For a motor to operate a pump, a design engineer must choose the horsepower. Horsepower rating is a design characteristic that can vary from 10 to 40 horsepower. The motor will cost $120 per year to operate, plus $0.60 per horsepower. The running expenses of such motors will be $0.055 per horsepower-hour divided by the horsepower rating. Each year, 9,000 horsepower-hours will be required. Determine how much horsepower should be supplied to keep the overall yearly cost to a minimal. Demonstrate that your entire cost each year has been reduced.
