Can you assist me. Answer by stanbon(75887) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! "how much must you invest at 7% simple interest to have a total of $8000 (principal + interest) after 2 years?" the formula I used or is using to solve is: A=P(1 + rt)
------------------
8000= P(1+0.07*2)
8000 = P(1.14)
P = 8000/1.14
P = $7017.54
