A family of five is planning to install solar panels on the roof of their home to help reduce the cost of electricity and save energy to help the environment. The family plans to install 10 panels, each with a power rating 600W. On average, a solar panel can produce electricity for 4.5 hours daily. Each person in the family uses electrical energy at an average rate of 2kilowatt-hour per day. Will they still need to buy electricity from an electrical energy supplier? Explain your reasoning.
