How much to the nearest dollar should you deposit in a savings account at 2.5% annual simple interest in order to have a balance
Aneli [31]

Answer:

The amount we have to deposit in a savings account x = $ 17777.78

Step-by-step explanation:

Amount = $ 20000

R = 2.5 %

Time = 5 years

Take principal amount = x

Simple interest earned in five years

S.I. = \frac{P R T}{100}

S.I. = \frac{P (2.5)(5)}{100}

S.I. = \frac{x}{8}   ------- (1)

We know hat total amount is given by

Total amount = principal amount + simple interest

A = x + S.I.

A = x + \frac{x}{8}

A = \frac{9x}{8}

Given that the total amount after 5 years is = $ 20000

\frac{9x}{8} = 20000

x = $ 17777.78

This is the amount we have to deposit in a savings account.
