Answer: r= 1.22
Step-by-step explanation:
Formula for amount with simple interest = 
, where
P= principal value , r= rate of interest , t = time.
Given: P= $2000, t= 5 years, r= 1.25% = 0.0125

Formula to compute compound amount : 

When both have same worth then

taking log on both sides , we get

Hence, Value of r= 1.22
The x-intercept of -2 gives us an idea that point (-2,0) if found along the line. The y-intercept of -1, tells us that point (0,-1), this also tells us that b = -1.
Now that we have two points, we can solve for slope m

Now that we have both m and b. Substitute these values to the slope intercept form

Product and times both mean multiply. Knowing this the expression is 8*3*11, or 264
