find fixed interest rate, if a principal of $5,000 invested for 4 years earns $900, how much interest will $6,000 invested for 3 years earn at the same interest rate?
\n" ); document.write( "I=PRT
\n" ); document.write( "900=(5000)R(4)
\n" ); document.write( "900=20000R
\n" ); document.write( "\"900%2F20000=R\"
\n" ); document.write( ".045=R
\n" ); document.write( "So the rate = .045, now use that to find interest for $6,000;
\n" ); document.write( "I=(6000)(.045)(3)
\n" ); document.write( "I=$810
\n" ); document.write( ":)
