I=prt solve for I? HOW DO YOU DO THIS?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Could you take a screen shot of the problem so I can help you better?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i can type it, its on paper

OpenStudy (texaschic101):

I is already solved for

OpenStudy (anonymous):

use the simple interest formula to find the unknown quantity: I= ? p=1250 r=8.9% t= 6 years

OpenStudy (texaschic101):

I = PRT I = (1250)(.089)(6) --- be sure and turn your percent into a decimal I = 667.50 -- and you just multiply them

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh! That makes much more sense. Interest rate (i)= (1250)(8.9%)(6)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

he beat me to it.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thanks, but multiply what by what, 667.50 by 6?

OpenStudy (texaschic101):

I = PRT simply means I = P * R * T....so multiply p x r x t

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ow, okay! thanks

OpenStudy (texaschic101):

but you have to remember to turn your percent into a decimal

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes, thank you
