You want to put $2,500 in a simple interest account. It has a 4% annual interest rate. How long will it take you to earn $200 in interest?

Step-by-step explaination

Formula for the simple interest is: I = P * r * t, where: I = $500, P = $2,500, r = 0.04 and t stays for the number of the years. 500 = 2,500 * 0.04 * t; 500 = 100 * t; t = 500 : 100; t = 5. 5 years.

question 1 is 8, question 2 is 9, question 3 is 24

step-by-step explanation:

now, the numbers they give you at the top are the key. from there, you just have to plug and chug! let's try 1, 2, and 3!

key: a=3, b=5, c=6

1. a+5

remember, a=3, so we plug that in to get 3+5=8

2. 15-c

c=6, so we plug that in to get 15-6=9

3. 4b

b=6, so we plug it in to get 4*6=24
