The thermostat setting of a house can be lowered by 28F by wearing a light long-sleeved sweater, or by 48F by wearing a heavy long-sleeved sweater for the same level of comfort. If each 8F reduction in thermostat setting reduces the heating cost of a house by 4 percent at a particular location, determine how much the heating costs of a house can be reduced by wearing heavy sweaters if the annual heating cost of the house is $600.
