Step-by-step explanation:
The simple interest formula is as follows:
f = p + i * n * p which can be simplified to:
f = p * (1 + i * n)
f is the future value
p is the present value or principal
i is the interest rate per time period
n is the number of time periods.
you are given that 9000 grows at 7% per year for n years and results in 12150.
substitute in the equation of f = p * (1 + i * n) to get:
12150 = 9000 * (1 + .07 * n)
divide both sides of this equation by 9000 to get:
12150 / 9000 = 1 + .07 * n
simplify this to get:
1.35 = 1 + .07 * n
subtract 1 from both sides of the equation to get:
1.35 - 1 = .07 * n
simlify to get:
.35 = .07 * n
divide both sides of the equation by .07 to get:
.35 / .07 = n
solve for n to get:
n = 5
since you now know the value of n, you can substitute in the first equation as follows:
the main equation is still f = p * (1 + i * n)
f = 14400
n = 5
i = .04
equation becomes:
14400 = p * (1 + .04 * 5) which becomes:
14400 = p * (1.2)
divide both sides of this equation by 1.2 to get:
14400 / 1.2 = p
solve for p to get:
p = 12000
the sum that you are looking for is 12000.
