Ana wants to take a trip to japan in 8 years. She currently has $4,200 in her account. How long will it take for her to double her balance with a 3.5% simple interest rate so she has enough money to go on her trip?

Respuesta :

Answer:

28.6 years

Step-by-step explanation:

If the balance doubles then Ana will have a total of 8400 in her account. The interest earned with thus be;

8400-4200 = 4200

Next, we apply the simple interest formula to determine the duration it will take for this level of interest to be realized;

[tex]I=\frac{PRT}{100}\\ 4200=\frac{4200*3.5*T}{100}\\ 100=3.5*T\\T=28.6 years[/tex]
