Assume 360 days in a year. Round answers to the nearest cent. 9. p r t $375, 2.25%, 4 years = = = $33.75 10. p r t $620, 3.05%, 1.5 years = = = $28.37 11. p r t $1100, 8.75%, 90 days = = = $24.06 12. p r t $6742.75, 6.05%, 90 days = = = $101.98 13. p r t $587, 0.045% per day, 2 months = = = $15.85 14. p r t $2500, 3 %, 9 months 7 8 = = = $72.66 15. p r t $550.31, 8.9%, 67 days = = = $9.12 16. p r t $2756.78, 10.15%, 103 days = = = $80.06 17. p r t $1372.11, 1 % per month, 6 months 3 8 = = = $113.20 18. p r t $41,864, 0.0375% per day, 60 days = = = $941.94 In Exercises 19–24, use the simple interest formula to determine the missing value. If necessary, round all dollar figures to the nearest cent. 19. p r t i $2000, ?, 3 years, $82.80 = = = = 1.38% 20. p r t i ?, 2.1%, 135 days $37.80 = = = = $4800 21. p r t i ?, 6%, 5 months, $175.00 = = = = $7000 22. p r t i $800.00, 4%, ?, $64.00 = = = = 2 years 23. p r t i $957.62, 6.5%, ?, $124.49 = = = = 2 years 24. p r t i $1650.00, ?, 6.5 years, $343.20 = = = = 3.2% Problem Solving In Exercises 25–34, if necessary round all dollar figures to the nearest cent and round percents to the nearest hundredth of a percent. 25.
