Michael deposits $3000 into an account that pays simple interest at a rate of 2% per year. How much interest will he be paid in the first 6 years?

$3360 in the first 6 years.

Step-by-step Explanation:

To get the answer, you need to do 3000 x 2%. That would get you 60. Then, you multiply 60 x 6 (6 for the 6 years) which would be 360. Finally, you add 360 to 3000 and your answer would be $3360.

step-by-step explanation:

step 1: simplify both sides of the equation.

7x+(8)(x)+(8)(

)=(3)(6x)+(3)(−9)+−8(distribute)

7x+8x+2=18x+−27+−8

(7x+8x)+(2)=(18x)+(−27+−8)(combine like terms)

15x+2=18x+−35

15x+2=18x−35

tep 2: subtract 18x from both sides.

15x+2−18x=18x−35−18x

−3x+2=−35

step 3: subtract 2 from both sides.

−3x+2−2=−35−2

−3x=−37

step 4: divide both sides by -3.
