If you were to invest only $1, how much simple interest would you have if the rate was 4.6%? Use the following years for each scenario:

30 years:

45 years:

65 years:

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for determining simple interest is expressed as

I = PRT/100

Where

I represents interest paid on the investment.

P represents the principal or amount invested.

R represents interest rate

T represents the duration of the investment in years.

From the information given,

P = $1

R = 4.6%

1) When t = 30 years,

I = (1 * 4.6 * 30) / 100 = $1.38

2) When t = 45 years,

I = (1 * 4.6 * 45) / 100 = $2.07

3) When t = 65 years,

I = (1 * 4.6 * 65) / 100 = $2.99

30 years: 1.38

45 years: 2.07

65 years:2.99

Step-by-step explanation:

$1x0.046=0.046

0.046x30=1.38

0.046x45=2.07

0.046x65=2.99

this is assuming that it gets interest yearly and that they don't want the original amount included.
