I = p * r * n
i is the interest
p is the principal
r is the interest rate per time period
n is the number of time periods.
in your problem:
i = 900
p = 2000
r = what you want to find
n = 3 years
formula becomes 900 = 2000 * r * 3
solve for r to get r = 900 / 2000 / 3 = .15
that's .15 interest rate per year = 15% per year.
at a nominal interest rate of .15 per year, the interest rate per month would be .15/12 = .0125 per month.
the remaining balance at the end of 6 month is equal to 1907.140183
Step-by-step answer:
Given:
A triangle
Perimeter = 60 cm
longest side = 4* shortest side (x)
Solution:
longest side = 4x
shortest side = x
third (intermediate side = 60 -x -4x = 60-5x
The triangle inequality specifies that the sum of the two shorter sides must be greater than the longest side to form a triangle. Hence
x + y > 4x
x + 60-5x > 4x
60 - 4x > 4x
8x < 60
x < 60/8 = 7.5, or
x < 7.5
Therefore to form a triangle, x (shortest side) must be less than 7.5 cm.
Examine the options: both 7 and 5 are both less than 7.5 cm.
40, 30 and 25 all have a problem because the longest side (4 times longer) will exceed the perimeter of 60.
Now also examine cases where 4x is NOT the longest side, in which case we need
4x>=y
or
4x >= 60-5x
9x >=60
x >= 6.67
so x=5 will not qualify, because 4x will no longer be the longest side.
The only valid option is x=7 cm
The side lengths for x=7 and x=5 are, respectively,
(7, 25, 28)
5, 20, 35 (in which case, the longest side is no longer 4x=20, so eliminated)
