It take a clothes dryer 35 minutes to dry a load of towels. If the dryer uses 6,750,000 joules of energy to dry the towels, what is the power rating of the machine?
Power is equal to work divided by time
Work is equal to force times distance.
I would convert the 35 minutes to seconds (35 x 60 = 2100) and then divide the 6,750,000 by 2100 (3214.29). Since I believe this answer is in watts, I would divide it by 1000 to convert it to kilowatts (3.21429).

When evaluating a one-sided limit, you need to be careful when a quantity is approaching zero since its sign is different depending on which way it is approaching zero from. Let us look at some examples.
