Answer:

  • $0.536

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Variable: </u>

  • p for pen

<u>Equation:</u>

  • 5(3p + 0.97) = 12.89

<u>Solution:</u>

  • 5(3p + 0.97) = 12.89
  • 15p + 4.85 = 12.89
  • 15p = 12.89 - 4.85
  • 15p = 8.04
  • p = 8.04 / 15
  • p = 0.536

Hannah earned $1536 in 8 years on an investment at a 4% annual simple interest rate. How much was Hannah’s investment? $4800 $30
Nonamiya [84]

Simple interest calculates interest on initial amount only. The investment by Hannah was : Option A: $4800

<h3>How to calculate simple interest amount if rate of interest is R% annually?</h3>

Suppose that the initial amount of investment is P

And the rate of simple interest is R% annually,

And the time of investment is T years.

Then, the amount of simple interest is calculated as:

I = \dfrac{P \times R \times T}{100}

For the given case, let the initial investment Hannah made was of $P

Then, the time of investment is T = 8 years, R% = 4%, and given that Hannah earned interest I = $1536

Putting values in the above formula, we get;

I = \dfrac{P \times R \times T}{100}\\\\1536 = \dfrac{P \times 8 \times 4}{100}\\\\P = \dfrac{153600}{32} = 4800

Thus,

The investment by Hannah was : Option A: $4800
