Answer:

The answer is "Option a"

Step-by-step explanation:

dune buggy cost [tex]=\$8,800\\\\[/tex]

down payment[tex]=\$1,200[/tex]

Calculating net principle [tex](P)=\$(8,800-1,200)=\$7,600[/tex]

time[tex]=3 \ years= 36 \ months\\\\[/tex]

rate[tex]= 15\%[/tex]

Calculating the sample interest:

[tex]I=\frac{ptr}{100}[/tex]

  [tex]=\frac{7,600 \times 3 \times 15}{100}\\\\=76 \times 3 \times 15\\\\=76 \times 45\\\\=3420[/tex]

Calculating the total amount payases:[tex]=A=P+I=\$(7,600+3,420)=\$11,020[/tex]

Calculating monthly loan payments:

[tex]=\frac{A}{36}=\frac{11,020}{36}=\$306.11[/tex]
