Tahmar knows the formula for simple interest is i=prt, where i represents the simple interest on an amount of money, p, for t years at r rate. she transforms the equation to isolate p: p=i/? . using this formula, what is the amount of money, p, that will generate $20 at a 5% interest rate over 5 years?

1. isolate the variable, in this case, d. subtract 35.5 on both sides of the equation.2. 52 subtracted by 35.5 is 16.53. therefore your answer would be d= 16.5this is the basics of pre algebra, isolating variable through adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing, if you have any other questions to ask just comment!
