Given the simple interest formula:

I = P•R•T

where:
I = interest
P = principal
R = interest rate
T = time (in years)

We can isolate R algebraically to find out the interest rate:

I = P•R•T

Divide both sides by P•T:

I / (P•T) = (P•R•T)/(P•T)

The formula for the interest rate is:
R = I / (P•T)

Substitute the given values into this formula to solve for the interest rate (R):

R = I / (P•T)

R = $490/ ($1,400 • 5 years)
R = $490 / $7,000
R = 0.07 or 7%

Therefore, the interest rate is 7%.

What is the slope of the line? y + 5=2(x+1)
mel-nik [20]

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

So we have the equation:

y+5=2(x+1)

This is in the format point-slope form, where:

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)

Here, m is the slope.

In our original equation, 2 replaces m.

Therefore, our slope is 2.
