Its six trust me.

Answer 2

Interest rate= 0.083%

Explanation:

Principal= $5000 Amount= $10000 Time period= 12 years

A=Amount, P= Principal, I= Simple Interest r= Rate of interest t= Time period

`A= P+ I\\10000= 5000+ I\\I=10000-5000=5000\\I=Prt\\5000=5000*r*12\\r=5000/5000*12\\r=5000/60000\\r=0.083`
