6% simple interest formula is:\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "i = p * r * n\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "i = interest
\n" ); document.write( "p = principal
\n" ); document.write( "r = interest rate per time period
\n" ); document.write( "n = number of time periods.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "formula becomes:\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "i = 800 * .06 * 7 = 336.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "value of the investment will be 800 + 336 = 1136.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "
