Jeff purchased a government bond, which has a maturity value of $3400 after 25 years at 11 1⁄4 % simple interest. How much should he pay for this bond?

Please help with a step by step!!

he should pay $891.8 for this bond

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for determining simple interest is expressed as

I = PRT/100

Where

I represents interest paid on the government bond.

P represents the principal or amount paid for the government bond.

R represents interest rate

T represents the duration of the government bond in years.

From the information given

R = 11.25

T = 25 years

I = 3400 - P

Therefore,

3400 - P = (P × 11.25 × 25)/100

3400 - P = 2.8125P

2.8125P + P = 3400

3.8125P = 3400

P = 891.8

the answer to the question is a

step-by-step explanation:

it has the same slope and the same y-intercept.

y + 11 = -7/9(x - 18)

y + 11 =-7/9x + 14

b

y = -7/9x + 3

y-intercept (0, 3)
