Answer:

D) 5.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the interest rate, use the equation:  I = prt


I = Interest = $6,600


p = principal = $15,000


r = rate = unknown


t = time = 8 years



Now plug the numbers into the equation.


6,600 = 15,000 * r * 8


6,600 = 120,000 * r



Now isolate the variable by dividing both sides of the equation by 120,000.


0.055 = r



Now change the rate to a percent by moving the decimal point 2 digits to the right.


5.5% = r   OR   r = 5.5%

Martha is buying a house for $107,820. She is making 15 percent down payment and financing the remainder at 6.5 percent for 25 y
stellarik [79]
Given:
Total price : 107,820 
down payment 15% of the total price.
financing the remainder at 6.5% for 25 years.

How much is she financing? She will finance 85% of the total price.

107,820 * 15% = 16,173
107,820 - 16,173 = 91,647

or 
107,820 * (100-15)% = 107,820 * 85% = 91,647

A tv is $850. The sale for the tv was 20% off the original price but you can take an additional 15% off at the register
klasskru [66]
So from what I understand of the problem, the tv costs $850 at a discounted price of 20%. and other than the 20%, you can get an additional discount of 15% at the counter. So to solve this, you can just simply multiply 850 with 35% or 0.35. The answer to that will be $297.5. Now you then have to less this amount with 850. The final answer to that is 552.5. So after all the discounts that you have received from the store, then the final price that you can get for this tv set would be $552.5
