For simple interest accounts the interest earned or due depends on the principal p, interest rate r, and the time t in years according to the formula I = prt. Paul deposited $8400 in a savings account that pays 7.5% simple interest. How long will it take the account balance to reach $11,172.00 at this rate of interest, if no more deposits are made? (Hint: How much interest will be paid?)
