Simple Interest Review

A = P(1 + rt) where:A = the amount of money you haveP is the Principal amount of money to be invested R = the Interest Rate R% per period. Six percent interest = 0.06; twenty percent interest = 0.20 T = Number of Time Periods.

MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY

Example: Zach makes cheddar

A = P(1 + rt)

Zach invests $2000 for six years at a 10% interest rate. How much will he make?

PEMDAS: 2 1 3A = 2000(1 + .10 x 6) A = 2000(1.6) = $1,600NOTES: Solve using PEMDAS! Remember to convert % to decimals correctly!

Let’s Do Together

A = P(1 + rt) 1). How much money does Chris make if he has $8000 earning 12% interest for 7 years?

2). How much money does Liana make if she earns 30% on $4000 for 9 years?

3). Is it better to take $10,000 and earn 10% for five years or 20% for three years?

Let’s Do Together II

A = P(1 + rt) 1). If you earn 10% for six years and finish with $16,000, how much did you start with?

2). If you start with $10,000 and finish with $14,500, and you invested it for three years, what interest rate did you receive?
