Theo borrows $8,000 for college expenses. He will pay a total of $10,280 after 6 years. What percent of interest did Theo pay? i will give you 10 coins

9514 1404 393

  4.75%

Step-by-step explanation:

When simple interest is charged, the payback amount is ...

  A = P(1 +rt) . . . . for annual rate r and a term of t years

Using the given values, we can solve for r.

  10280 = 8000(1 +6r)

  1.285 = 1 +6r . . . . . . . . divide by 8000

  0.285 = 6r . . . . . . . . . . subtract 1

  0.285/6 = r = 0.0475 = 4.75% . . . . . . divide by 6; express as %

Theo paid interest at the rate of 4.75%.

step-by-step explanation:

there is a formula i can give you:

it is r^2*n*sin(360/n) divided by 2 where r represents the "radius" and n is the number of sides.

plug them in:

(10sqrt(3))^2*6*sin(360/6) divided by 2

100*3*6*sin(60) divided by 2

900*sin(60)

900*sqrt(3)/2

450*sqrt(3)

approx is 779.4 cm^2
