It would take 25 years for Birr 500 to quadruple if invested at a rate of 12% simple interest per annum.
<h3 /><h3>Simple interest formula</h3>
Using the simple interest formula A = P(1 + rt) where
- P = princial amount = Birr 500,
- A = final amount = 4P (since it is quadrupled),
- r = rate = 12% = 12/100 = 0.12 and
- t = time to quadruple
<h3 /><h3>Finding the time it takes to quadruple </h3>
Since we require t, making t subject of the formula, we have
t = [(A/P) - 1]/r
Substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have
t = [(A/P) - 1]/r
t = [(4P/P) - 1]/0.12
t = [4 - 1]/0.12
t = 3/0.12
t = 25 years
So, it would take 25 years for Birr 500 to quadruple if invested at a rate of 12% simple interest per annum.

The answer to this rests on knowing that there are four properties of multiplication (which your teacher will likely expect you to know...):
These are:
1. commutative
2. associative
3. multiplicative identity
4. distributive
I won't define each of these -- they should be in your notes or textbook. Look them up.
In this case, we are multiplying three terms together -- on the left hand side the parentheses mean to multiply a and b first, then multiply that by 3. On the right hand side, we multiply b times 3 first, and then multiply the product by a.
This would be an example of the associative property of multiplication: when three or more factors are multiplied together, the product is the same regardless of how the factors are grouped.
Hope this helps!
Good luck
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
(p²)²+2²
(p²+2)²-2p²2
(p²+2)²-4p²
(p²+2)²-(2p)²
(p²+2-2p)(p²+2+2p)
It is 1, since 36/9 = 4, and 4 divided by 4 = 1.
