    interest rates on a three-year bond = (int in year1+int in year2+int in year3) / n = (3+4.5+6) / 3 = 4.8%

    interest rates on a six-year bond = (3%+4.5%+6% + 7.5% + 9% + 10.5%) / 6 = 7.35%

    interest rates on a nine-year bond = (3%+4.5% + 6% + 7.5% + 9% + 10.5% + 13% + 14.5%+16%) / 9 = 10.23%

    So, int rate on a 3 year bond is 4.8%; on a 6 year bond is 7.35%; on a 9 year bond 10.23%
