I am trying to figure out how to solve these. I have taken 1 example from each topic so I can see how it's calculated then I can do the rest. I have supplied the answers I got and if they are right then I know what I am doing if not then any help solving them would be great.

I looked at last 4: all VERY wrong; perhaps you're simply doing one thing wrong, but we can't tell
if you don't show HOW you got your answers.

Ax example, the one above works like this:
r = rate
759(1 + r)^6 = 1017.13 ; is that what you were doing?
(1 + r)^6 = 1017.13 / 759
1 + r = (1017.13 / 759)^(1/6)
r = (1017.13 / 759)^(1/6) - 1

r = 1.04999955... - 1
r = .04999955... ; that's 5% rounded

Did you follow all that?
