Giselle invested $10,000 into a savings account that earns annual simple interest. After 8 years, the total amount of her account was
$14,800. Assuming that Giselle made no other deposits or withdrawals
over the 8 years, find the interest rate of the account.

A. 18.5%
B. 6%
C. 3.1%
D. 5%

x > 1.3

step by step:

8.5−0.9x> 9.8−1.9x

step 1: simplify both sides of the inequality.

−0.9x+8.5> −1.9x+9.8

step 2: add 1.9x to both sides.

−0.9x+8.5+1.9x> −1.9x+9.8+1.9x

1x+8.5> 9.8

step 3: subtract 8.5 from both sides.

1x+8.5−8.5> 9.8−8.5

1x> 1.3

step 4: divide both sides by 1.

1x/1 > 1.3/1
