The formula for simple interest is <em>I</em> = <em>prt</em>, where <em>I</em> is the amount of interest, <em>p</em> is the principal borrowed, <em>r</em> is the interest rate written as a decimal number, and <em>t</em> is the amount of time in years. First we find the amount of interest. He borrowed $35000 but paid back $46375. That means he paid 46375-35000 = $11375 in interest. We can now substitute our information into our interest formula:
11375=35000(<em>r</em>)(5)
11375=35000(5)(<em>r</em>) ----- remember that multiplication is commutative
11375=175000<em>r</em>
Divide both sides by 175000 to cancel it:
11375/175000 = 175000<em>r</em>/175000
0.065 = <em>r</em>
To convert this to a percentage, we multiply by 100:
0.065(100) = 6.5%
Answer:
3, 8
Step-by-step explanation:
X = 200 because when finding 10% of s number we divide the number to 10. then you find 23 percent of 200. which is 46, because percentages are found out of 100 and 200 is 100 multiplied by 2. So we have to multiply 23 by 2. the answer is 46.
-9x(5 - 2x) Distribute/multiply 9x into (5 - 2x)
(-9x)5 - (-9x)2x
-45x - (-18x²) 2 negative signs cancel each other out and become +
-45x + 18x² Your answer is A ( the first option)
