26. Jose borrows $12,000 from his brother Fernando and promises to pay off just the interest (4%) while he is in college. Write an equation expressing the amount of interest he will be pay as a function of time (years) in school. Over the course of the 4 years at school, how much interest will Jose pay?
12000x.04xT=I
12000x.04×4=1920
He will pay $1920 in interest over 4 years.
I=Prt
12000x.04=1920
1920 dollars in interest in 4 years
the whole amount(x)rate(x)years *must change 4% into a decimal before multiplying it by
12000 x .04 x 4 = 1920 moving two places to the right
