I'm back!!! ;) A $7000 investment earns $1330 simple interest in two years. What is the annual interest rate? A. 1.90% B. 3.80% C. 9.50% D. 19.0%

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I = Prt 7000 = (1330)(2)r Multiply 1330 * 2.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2660

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Wait, no it's: 1330 = (7000)(2)r So multiply 7000 * 2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

1400

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Check again

OpenStudy (anonymous):

14000

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes, now we divide 14000 to both sides, what's 1330 / 14000?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

0.095

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes, now multiply by 100.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

0.00095

@iGreen. Amm.. i think he dont get it you just want him to calculate the answer :3 ..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Um, no multiply, not divide.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Sorry! 9.5

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes, that's our answer. 9.5%

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh thank you again!! :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Actually, I think he does. I = Prt This is the formula to find Interest Rate. We are given the Interest Rate, Principal, and time(in years). So we plug in what we know and solve for 'r'.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I am a girl! :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Aahhh Okey Sorry

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh, sorry.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It's cool. Lol
