Interest Questions... Continued...
A=P(1+rt)
The answer isn't 11.5 or 12.5%
@Mertsj
i was thinking 500=480*(1+(130/360))
Why 130 days?
he sells it for 480 after 130 days... i dont know. i think that's the part i have wrong.
The note only has 110 more days to go on the note. Because Homer sold a 240 day note after 130 days.
ohh
im getting .1363636363
thats wrong apparently ^^^
Your equation doesn't seem to have an r in it and you are trying to find r
yes that's what i get for r
Moe is going to get more than 500 because he will get the interest on the 500 for 240 days at 6%. So he will get 500+500(.06)(2/3)
So Moe will get 520 dollars.
the answer is a percent
What is your point?
Why do you have 500 in your formula?
i dont know i'm freakin retarded when it comes to math..........
Moe invests $480 for 110 days and gets 520 back. So he makes $40 in 110 days. So using the simple interest formula that I = Prt 40=480(r)(110/360) r=27.3%
Or using your formula 520=480(1+110/360r)520=480+480x110/360xr 40=146.67r r=27.3%
Is that the right answer?
yeah thats right...
ok i need more help... im awful with these for some reason....
