A.
1.90%

B.
3.80%

C.
9.50%

D.
19.0%

Answer 1

You'll use the formula I = P*r*t where the interest earned is I = 1330, the amount invested is P = 7000 and the time is t = 2 years.

So,

I = P*r*t

1330 = 7000*r*2

then you solve for r

Answer 2

The value of r that you get will be in decimal form. Multiply that result by 100 to convert to percent form.

Answer 3

so... i guess ill take the red pill.
