<PRE><B>Question 293507</B>
Kevin invested money in a savings account at a rate of 5% simple interest.
After one year, he has $4347.00 in the account. How much did kevin originally invest.
------------------------
Simple Interest: A(t) = P(1+rt)
4347 = P(1+0.05*1)
4347 = P(1.05)
Principal = 4347/1.05 = $4140.00
