  1. What does simple interest pay interest on, and why does that make a line?
  2. $500 at 4% simple interest for 6 years: find I and A.
  3. Solve I = Prt for r. Then: $400 earned $60 in 5 years. What was the rate?
  4. In A = 300 + 15t, what are the y-intercept and the slope, in money words?

  1. On the principal only, so the same dollars are added every year: a constant difference.
  2. I = 500 × 0.04 × 6 = $120.00. A = $620.00.
  3. r = IPt = 602000 = 0.03 = 3%.
  4. $300 is the principal; $15 is added each year (a rate of 5%).
