The interest rate would be 2.4%.

We start out finding the total amount he pays, including interest. 

78.40/month * 12 months * 5 years = $4704

We take off the amount of principal:
4704-4200 = 504

This is the amount of interest he pays.  Now we use the simple interest formula, I=prt:

504=4200(r)(5)

Multiply 4200 and 5:
504=21000r

Divide both sides by 21000:
504/21000 = 21000r/21000
0.024 = r
2.4% = r

A line passes through (-1,7)and(2, 10)
kumpel [21]
Slope
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m = (10 - 7)/(2 --1)
m = 3/3
m = 1

To find the equation
y = mx + b
m is slope
y = 1x + b
plug in one of the equations to solve for b
10 = 1(2) + b
10 = 2 + b
subtract 2 from both sides
8 = b

The equation is 
y = 1x + 8
or you can write it as
y = x + 8

Hope this helps
