Ques!on 2 pts



Annie borrowed $9,000 from her brother for 5 years at a simple interest rate of
. How much interest will Annie have to pay at the end of the term?


Correct! $3,093.75


$5,906.25


$3,437.50


$3,549.41


$3,051.00




I = PRT
I = ($9,000)(0.06875)(5)
I = $3,093.75




Ques!on 3 pts



Eric borrowed $3,250 for 17 weeks at a simple interest rate of . How
much interest will he have to pay?


$4,903.44


$93.29


$8,153.44


Correct! $94.30


$3,344.30




I = PRT
I = ($3,250)(0.08875)(17/52)
I = $94.30




Ques!on 4 pts



Catherine borrowed $15,000 at a simple interest rate of 8%. The total amount
that she has to repay is $16,000. In how many months does Catherine have to
pay off the loan?


7.81 months


8.00 months


Correct! 10.00 months


8.33 months


9.38 months




Step 1: Find I.
I = total repayment − amount borrowed
I = $16,000 − $15,000
I = $1,000

Step 2: Find T.
I = PRT
$1,000 = ($15,000)(0.08)T
T = 0.833333333... years
Mul"ply by 12 to convert to months.
T = 10.00 months




Ques!on 5 pts



Chris"na invested money in two accounts: a savings account that yields 1%
simple interest and a CD that yields 2% simple interest. The amount invested at
2% was twice the amount invested at 1%. How much did Chris"na invest in the
CD if the total interest from both accounts combined at the end of 1 year was
$40?


$800


Correct! $1,600


$400


$2,000


$1,000




Savings Account:
I1 = P1R1T1
I1 = P1(0.01)(1)
I1 = 0.01P1

CD:
I2 = P2R2T2
I2 = P2(0.02)(1)
I2 = 0.02P2

Total amount of interest combined:
I1 + I2 = $40

Subs"tute I1 and I2 to get: 0.01P1+ 0.02P2 = $40

Amount invested in the CD was twice as much as the amount invested
in the savings account:
P2 = 2P1

Subs"tute P2 in the equa"on for the total amount of interest to get:
0.01P1 + 0.02(2P1) = $40

Solve this equa"on for P1:
0.01P1 + 0.02(2P1) = $40
0.01P1 + 0.04P1 = $40
0.05P1 = $40
P1 = $800 This is the amount invested in the savings account.

We need to find the amount invested in the CD. i.e. Find P2.
P2 = 2P1 = 2($800) = $1,600 This is the amount invested in the CD.




Ques!on 6 pts



Which of the following sequences is an arithme"c sequence?


Correct! 3, 12, 21, 30, 39, …


2, 9, 16, 21, 28, …


2, 4, 8, 14, 22, …


3, 6, 12, 24, 48, …


5, 10, 25, 50, 75, …




3, 12, 21, 30, 39, … is an arithme"c sequence because the difference
between any two consecu"ve terms is constant.

12 − 3 = 9
21 − 12 = 9
30 − 21 = 9
39 − 30 = 9

common difference = 9

$20,328




Arithme!c Sequence
a1 = −$1,600
d = $549
Find S12.

Step 1: Find a12.
an = a1 + (n−1)d
a12 = −$1,600 + (12−1)($549)
a12 = $4,439

Step 2: Find S12.
Sn = (n/2)(a1 + an)
S12 = (12/2)(−$1,600 + $4,439)
S12 = $17,034

$20,643.84


$643.84




D = MdT
D = ($20,000)(0.05875)(200/365)
D = $643.84

Proceeds = M - D = $20,000 - $643.84 = $19,356.16




Ques!on 9 pts



Jus"n bought a $5,000 face value T-bill at auc"on for $4,906.77. The simple
discount rate is 3.03%. How many weeks will it take for his T-bill to mature?


24 weeks


63 weeks


12 weeks


62 weeks


Correct! 32 weeks




Step 1: Find D.
D=M−P
D = $5,000 − $4,906.77
D = $93.23

Step 2: Find T.
D = MdT
$93.23 = ($5,000)(0.0303)T
T = 0.615379538... years
Mul"ply by 52 to convert to weeks.
T = 32 weeks




Ques!on 10 pts



Tyler invested $9,800 in discount notes with face values totaling $10,000. The

equivalent simple interest rate?


3.33%


2.94%


3.00%


Correct! 3.06%


4.00%




I = PRT
Find R.

Step 1:
I=M−P
I = $10,000 − $9,800 = $200

Step 2:
I = PRT
$200 = ($9,800)(R)(8/12)
R = 0.03061...
Mul"ply by 100 to get R = 3.06%




Ques!on 11 pts



Mia is expec"ng an $848 paycheck in 5 days. A payday lender offers to give her
cash now in exchange for this check. The lender’s fee is 1.5% of the amount of

32.72%


2.82%


20.17%


174.25%


Correct! 281.67%




D = MdT
Find d.

Step 1:
D = fee = 0.015 x $848 + $20 = $32.72

Step 2:
D = MdT
$32.72 = ($848)(d)(5/365)
d = 2.816698113...
Mul"ply by 100 to get d = 281.67%
