Answer:

A) Interest=$4,070

B) Total amount=$12,070

Step-by-step explanation:

A) From the question,

Principal,P =$8,000

Rate,R=9.25%=0.0925

Time,T=66 months=5.5yrs

We can calculate the interest by the relation,

I=PRT

By substitution,we obtain

[tex]I=8,000 \times 0.0925 \times5.5 [/tex]

I=$4,070

B) Adding the principal and the interest gives the total amount to be paid.

Implies that,

Total Amount=$8,000+$4,070=$12,070
