1-16 are similar, Bree..we are just solving for different things in some of them.....here's a couple
1. Interest = Principal * Rate *Time
Interest = 1500 * .05 * 3 = $225
5. 20 = 250 * r * 2
20 = 500 * r divide both sides by 500
20/500 = r = .04 = 4%
10. 1440 = P * .03 * 5
1440 = P * .15 divide both sides by .15
$ 9600 = P
