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!

Can someone please explain<br> AAS<br> SAS<br> SSS<br> ASA <br> CPCTC
Lostsunrise [7]

The Angle Angle Side postulate (often abbreviated as AAS) states that if two angles and the non-included side one triangle are congruent to two angles and the non-included side of another triangle, then these two triangles are congruent.

The Side Angle Side postulate (often abbreviated as SAS) states that if two sides and the included angle of one triangle are congruent to two sides and the included angle of another triangle, then these two triangles are congruent.

SSS stands for "side, side, side" and means that we have two triangles with all three sides equal. For example: is congruent to: (See Solving SSS Triangles to find out more) If three sides of one triangle are equal to three sides of another triangle, the triangles are congruent.

ASA stands for "angle, side, angle" and means that we have two triangles where we know two angles and the included side are equal. If two angles and the included side of one triangle are equal to the corresponding angles and side of another triangle, the triangles are congruent.

CPCTC is an acronym for corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent. CPCTC is commonly used at or near the end of a proof which asks the student to show that two angles or two sides are congruent. ... Corresponding means they're in the same position in the 2 triangles.
