Answer 1

Answer:$8865=6000(1+\frac{5\times t}{100})$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Liam deposited $P=\ \ 6000$

Rate of interest is $R=5\ \%$

If the amount after t years is $A=\ \ 8865$

Simple interest is given by

$S.I.=\dfrac{P\times R\times t}{100}$

And amount is

$A=P+S.I.$

$A=P(1+\frac{R\times t}{100})$

Substituting values we get

$8865=6000(1+\frac{5\times t}{100})$

$1.4775=1+\frac{5\times t}{100}$

$0.4775\frac{5\times t}{100}$

$5t=47.75$

$t=\frac{47.75}{5}=9.55\ years$
