The interest rate is B. 4%

Given:
Principal = 450
Interest = 126
term = 7
rate = ?

Simple Interest is computed by multiplying the Principal, rate, and term.

Interest = P × r × t

126 = 450 × r × 7
126 = 3150r
r = 126/3150
r = 0.04 x 100% = 4%

To check:

I = 450 × 0.04 x 7
I = 18 × 7
I = 126

Answer:

$x=-\frac{-20+\sqrt{-20w+3600}}{10},\:x=-\frac{-20-\sqrt{-20w+3600}}{10}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$w=-5\left(x-8\right)\left(x+4\right)\\\mathrm{Expand\:}-5\left(x-8\right)\left(x+4\right):\quad -5x^2+20x+160\\w=-5x^2+20x+160\\Switch\:sides\\-5x^2+20x+160=w\\\mathrm{Subtract\:}w\mathrm{\:from\:both\:sides}\\-5x^2+20x+160-w=w-w\\Simplify\\-5x^2+20x+160-w=0\\Solve\:with\:the\:quadratic\:formula\\\mathrm{Quadratic\:Equation\:Formula:}\\\mathrm{For\:a\:quadratic\:equation\:of\:the\:form\:}ax^2+bx+c=0\mathrm{\:the\:solutions\:are\:}\\x_{1,\:2}=\frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$

$\mathrm{For\:}\quad a=-5,\:b=20,\:c=160-w:\quad x_{1,\:2}=\frac{-20\pm \sqrt{20^2-4\left(-5\right)\left(160-w\right)}}{2\left(-5\right)}\\x=\frac{-20+\sqrt{20^2-4\left(-5\right)\left(160-w\right)}}{2\left(-5\right)}:\quad -\frac{-20+\sqrt{-20w+3600}}{10}\\x=\frac{-20-\sqrt{20^2-4\left(-5\right)\left(160-w\right)}}{2\left(-5\right)}:\quad -\frac{-20-\sqrt{-20w+3600}}{10}\\The\:solutions\:to\:the\:quadratic\:equation\:are\\x=-\frac{-20+\sqrt{-20w+3600}}{10},\:x=-\frac{-20-\sqrt{-20w+3600}}{10}$
