Answer:

5.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the interest rate, use the equation:  I = prt

I = Interest = $6,600

p = principal = $15,000

r = rate = unknown

t = time = 8 years


Now plug the numbers into the equation.

6,600 = 15,000 * r * 8

6,600 = 120,000 * r


Now isolate the variable by dividing both sides of the equation by 120,000.

0.055 = r


Now change the rate to a percent by moving the decimal point 2 digits to the right.

5.5% = r   OR   r = 5.5%

For this case we have:

x: Number of candies that Sydney has

The equation to find the amount of Sydney sweets is given by:

3x + 6 = 36

We want to clear x:

3x = 36-63x = 30

x = \frac{30}{3}

x = 10

So, Sydney has 10 candies
