You get a student loan from the educational assistance foundation to pay for educational expenses as you earn your associate’s degree. you will be allowed 10 years to pay the loan back. find the simple interest on the loan if you borrowed $3,600 at 8%.

$2,880

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the formula to calculate simple interest is given by :-

, where P is principal amount , t is time and r is the rate of interest.

Given : Time = 10 years;

Interest rate = 8% =0.08;

Principal = $3,600

Then ,

Hence, the amount of simple interest = $2,880

d, x=8

step-by-step explanation:

simplifying

4x + -5 = 2x + 11

reorder the terms:

-5 + 4x = 2x + 11

reorder the terms:

-5 + 4x = 11 + 2x

solving

-5 + 4x = 11 + 2x

solving for variable 'x'.

move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

add '-2x' to each side of the equation.

-5 + 4x + -2x = 11 + 2x + -2x

combine like terms: 4x + -2x = 2x

-5 + 2x = 11 + 2x + -2x

combine like terms: 2x + -2x = 0

-5 + 2x = 11 + 0

-5 + 2x = 11

add '5' to each side of the equation.

-5 + 5 + 2x = 11 + 5

combine like terms: -5 + 5 = 0

0 + 2x = 11 + 5

2x = 11 + 5

combine like terms: 11 + 5 = 16

2x = 16

divide each side by '2'.
