  4. Finding interest earned and balance

  5. Example 1 Rebecca put $600 in a savings account. The account earns 3% simple interest per year. What is the interest rate earned after 3 years? I = Prt I = (600) (0.03) (3) I = $54.00

  6. Example 1 Rebecca put $600 in a savings account. The account earns 3% simple interest per year. What is the balance after 3 years? Principal + Interest 600 + 54 $654.00 Rebecca’s savings account has $654.00 in it after 3 years.

  7. To convert Months into years months 12

  8. Example 2 Blake invests $5,000 in bonds for 6 months at an annual interest rate of 7%. How much interest did he earn, and what is the balance in his account? I = Prt 6 12 I = (5,000) (0.5) (0.07) 6 months = 0.5 year I = $175.00

  9. Example 2 What is the balance in his account after 6 months? Principal + Interest 5,000 + 175 $5,175.00 Blake’s account has $5,175.00 in it after 6 months.

  10. Finding annual interest rate

  11. Example 3 You put $1,000 in an account. The account earns $80 simple interest in 4 years. What is the annual interest rate? I = Prt 80 = (1,000) (r) (4) Simplify. 80 = 4,000r Divide both sides by 4,000. 0.02 = r 2%

  12. Finding time

  13. Example 4 How long will Karlie have to leave $5,000 in the bank to earn $500 in simple interest at 2%. I = Prt 500 = (5,000) (0.02) (t) Simplify. 500 = 100t Divide both sides by 100. 5 years 5 = t

  14. Finding the Principal

  15. Example 5 How much money did Carol borrow from the bank if she owed $45.00 in interest after 10 years with an annual interest rate of 3.5%. I = PRT 45 = (P) (0.035) (10) Simplify. 45 = 0.35P Divide both sides by 0.35. $128.57 = P

  16. Let’s practice • Directions: Find the interest earned AND balance of the account. • $600 at 6% for 3 years • $5,300 at 7.45% for 54 months
