Respuesta :

Let I am interest, r rate, t time and p principle,

l= prt

l= 5500(.115)(5 )= $3162.5 is the total amount of interest to pay.


Answer:

The amount of Mark's Total payment is $9478.15.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Mark borrowed $5,500 at 11.5 percent for five years.

To find : What is the amount of Mark's total payment?          

Solution :

Using compound interest formula,

[tex]A=P(1+r)^t[/tex]

Where A is the amount, 

P is the principle P=5,500  

r is the rate r=11.5%=0.115

t is the time t= 5 years

Substitute the value,

[tex]A=P(1+r)^t[/tex]

[tex]A=5500(1+0.115)^5[/tex]

[tex]A=5500(1.115)^5[/tex]

[tex]A=5500(1.7233)[/tex]

[tex]A=9478.15[/tex]

Therefore, The amount of Mark's Total payment is $9478.15.
