Answer:
4%
Step-by-step explanation:
264 interest/3 years=88 interest/year
principal x interest rate =interest/year
2200 x interest rate =88
interest rate =88/2200
interest rate =.04 or 4%
Time-and-a-half doesn't make enough sense to answer the question. If you fix it, or comment below the correction I will gladly help.
That's a quadratic, a nice parabola in vertex form.
The parabola has a positive x^2 term, so it's a CUP, concave up positive. It will have a minimum at the vertex, which is (2,5). Plot that point.
Now we need a couple of guide points to draw the usual parabola going up from both sides of its vertex. We try x=0 giving (0,9) and see that x=4 also gives 9, (4,9). Plot the parabola through those two points and the vertex and you're done.
