The following appeared in a memorandum from the planning department of an electric power company. "several recent surveys indicate that home owners are increasingly eager to conserve energy. at the same time, manufacturers are now marketing many home appliances, such as refrigerators and air conditioners, that are almost twice as energy efficient as those sold a decade ago. also, new technologies for better home insulation and passive solar heating are readily available to reduce the energy needed for home heating. therefore, the total demand for electricity in our area will not increase— and may decline slightly. since our three electric generating plants in operation for the past twenty years have always met our needs, construction of new generating plants will not be necessary." write a response in which you examine the stated and/or unstated assumptions of the argument. be sure to explain how the argument depends on these assumptions and what the implications are for the argument if the assumptions prove unwarranted
