I=PRT/100

1. Make R (rate) subject

R/100= I/PT

2. Substitute and calculate

r/100= i/pt

r/100= 40/400 × 1

(<em>4</em><em>0</em><em> </em><em>i</em><em>s</em><em> </em>from 440-400.<em>T</em><em>h</em><em>e</em><em> </em><em>i</em><em>n</em><em>t</em><em>e</em><em>r</em><em>e</em><em>s</em><em>t</em>)

r/100= 0.1

r/100×100= 0.1×100

r=10% (interest rate per year)

To confirm

I=PRT

I= 400×10/100×1

I= $40 (Interest)

What is measure of angle R?
Oliga [24]
Angle R can be solved using the inverse sine button on a calculator. Sine is y/r so opposite leg over the hypotenuse. For r, the opposite leg is 5cm and the hypotenuse is 13. The inverse sin button looks like sin^-1. Punch that in the calculator (make sure in degree mode). Punch the inverse sin and then 5/13 and you should get 22.62°

Simplify to create an equivalent expression 2 - 4 * 5 p + 1
ahrayia [7]

2 - 4 * 5p + 1

Simplified, this equation looks like this:

4 * 5p = 20p

2 - 1 = 1

20p + 1 is the simplified form of this equation.
