\n" ); document.write( "that means that
\n" ); document.write( "165=(1500)r(1)
\n" ); document.write( "165=1500r
\n" ); document.write( "r=.11 which is 11%\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "now that we figured out the rate, we can figure out the amount of interest with investment of 2500\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "i=(2500)(.11)(1)
\n" ); document.write( "i=$275
