To solve this problem you must appply the formula for simple interest, which is:
I = RxPxN
I: Simple Interest.
R:Rate (9.5$/100=0.095/12).
P: The principal (P=$9000).
N:number of periods (N=24).
When you substitute these values into the formula, you obtain:
I=RxPxN
I=(0.095/12)x9000x24
I=$1710
Therefore, the monthly payment is:
$1710/24=$71.25
What is Jerry's monthly payment?
The answer is: Jerry's monthly payment is $71.25
