Exercise 34

Calculating Interest Using the Simple Interest Formula. Rebecca wants to buy a new saddle for her horse. The one she wants usually costs $500, but this week it is on sale for $400. She does not have $400, but she could buy it with $50 down and pay the rest in 6 months with 10 percent interest. Does Rebecca save any money buying the saddle this way? (Obj. 2)
