Answer:

4%.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that Ethan invested £500 in the bank for 2 years. He earned £40 simple interest in total. We are asked to find the annual interest rate.

We will use simple interest formula to solve our given problem.

I=Prt, where,

I = Amount of interest,

P = Principal amount,

r = Annual interest rate in decimal form,

t = Time in years.

Upon substituting our given values in above formula, we will get:

40=500*r*2

40=1000*r

Now, we will divide both sides of our given equation by 100.

\frac{40}{1000}=\frac{1000*r}{1000}

\frac{4}{100}=r

\frac{1}{25}=r

0.04=r

Since our given interest rate is in decimal form, so we need to convert it in percentage.

0.04\times 100\%=4\%

Therefore, the simple interest rate per annum is 4%.

The formula is
I=prt
I interest earned 40
P principle 500
R interest rate?
T time 2 years
Solve the formula for r by dividing both sides by pt to get
R=I/pt
R=40÷(500×2)
R=0.04×100
R=4%

Hope it helps!

Sonja [21]

Answer:

s = u/tv

Step-by-step explanation:

To make s the subject of the formula in the equation of; u = tsv

,just divide both sides by (tv)...in which on the right hand side...it will cancel out t and v,hence leaving only s and then only the left hand side..it will give you your answer;

; u = tsv

; u/tv = tsv/tv

; s = u/tv

Answer:

  $86.81

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the given formula, we want to compute A for ...

  P = 4750

  r = 0.2279

  n = 365 . . . . . assuming "exact" interest

  t = 1 or 30

For 1 day late:

  A = 4750(1 +0.2279/365)^(365·(1/365)) = 4752.97

For 30 days late:

  A = 4750(1 +0.2279/365)^(365·(30/365)) = 4839.78

The difference in these payment amounts is ...

  $4839.78 -4752.97 = $86.81

You would save $86.81 in interest charges by paying only 1 day late.

<em>Comment on the question</em>

It would be a poor choice of credit card to use one that compounds interest daily. Most do so on a monthly basis.
