Mia agrees to borrow a 3-year loan with 4% simple interest to buy a motorcycle part a - if mia will pay a total of $444 in interest, how much money did she initially borrow? part b - how much interest would mia pay if the simple interest rate were 5%?

Part A

If Mia pays simple interest, it means that she will pay the same dollar amount of interest each year.

Since she paid a total interest of $444 over 3 years, her annual interest  = 444/3 = 148

Let "x" represent the intital amount she borrowed

So, we frame the equation as :

x*0.04 = 148

x = 148/0.04

x = 3,700

Amount she initially borrowed = $3,700

Part B:

If the interest was 5%,

Her annual interest will be = 3,700*0.05 = 185

So, her total interest = 185*3 = $555

Interest that Mia would pay at 5% simple interest = $555

7! = 7×6×5×4×3×2

3! = 3× 2

as 7! is multiple of 3! because 7! contains 3! that is 3× 2 as factor

so 7! /(3! ) = 7× 6× 5× 4

= 42 × 20

= 840

its b) 840✌✌✌
