<span>The simple interest formula is:

A = P · (1 + r · t)
where:
A = total amount
P = principal
r = rate
t = time 

Let's solve for r:
A = P + P · r · t
P · r · t = A - P

r = (A - P) / (P · t)

The quantity A - P is defined as the Interest, therefore:
r = I / (P <span>· t)
  = 1020 / (8500 </span>· 4)
  = 0.03

Therefore the rate was 3%.

suter [353]
As your -2 is directly affecting the x with addition/subtraction, it is a translation horizontally. To find direction, change the sign, from negative to positive, making it go right. This means it will be translated 2 units to the right, fitting the first statement. For your +5, it is not directly affecting the x, making it a translation vertically. As it's positive, it goes up, making it a translation 5 units up, fitting statement 4. This makes your correct statements 1 and 4.
