Answer:
r = 0.5 or 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Simple Interest Rate Formula: A = P(1 + r)^t
Simply plug in our known variables:
2700 = 800(1 + r)³
Now we solve for r:
Divide both sides by 800
27/8 = (1 + r)³
Take the cube root on both sides
∛27/8 = ∛(1 + r)³
Simplify
3/2 = 1 + r
Subtract 1 on both sides
r = 1/2
r = 0.5
Answer:
For compound interest, 50%.
Step-by-step explanation:
(I'm assuming this question is asking for the compound interest):
The formula for compound interest is given by:
[tex]A=P(1+\frac{r}{n})^{nt}[/tex]
Plug in the values we know. We can use 1 for n:
[tex]2700=800(1+r)^3\\27/8=(1+r)^3\\1+r=\sqrt[3]{27/8}\\r=3/2-1\\r=1/2=.5[/tex]
So, the interest rate is 50%.
