<PRE><B>Question 861609</B>
The simple interest earned by a certain amount of money varies jointly as the rate of interest and the time (in years) that the money is invested.
-----
i = krt 

If the money is invested at 11% for 2 years, $440 is earned. 
440 = k*0.11*2
k = 2000
-----------------
How much is earned if the money is invested at 16% for 3 years
i = 2000*rt
i = 2000*0.16*3
interest = 960
