You put $5000 in an account. the account earns $2250 simple interest in 10 years. what is the annual interest rate?

4.5%.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that you put $5000 in an account. The account earns $2250 simple interest in 10 years.

To find the annual interest rate we will use simple interest formula.

, where,

I = Amount of interest after t years,

P = Principal amount,

r = Annual interest rate in decimal form,

t = Time in years.

Upon substituting our given values in simple interest formula we will get,

Let us divide both sides of our equation by 50000.

Let us multiply our rate by 100 to get our annual interest rate as percentage.

Therefore, the annual interest rate is 4.5%.

1/3

step-by-step explanation:

to find this, you can divide 12 by 4 which is 3 or you can multiply 4 until you reach 12 (4x3=12). both should give you 3, meaning theres three times less bananas than there are oranges.
