Can I get help on this solved problem?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Michelle is debating between two different mortgages for $184,000. She found a 20-year fixed rate loan at 7.05% and 15-year fixed rate loan at the same rate. How much more interest will she pay for the 20-year loan versus the 15-year loan? For the 20 year loan I got 1432.10 for the 15 year loan I got 2773.10 How would I solve for the difference

OpenStudy (anonymous):

do I just subtract, because I did and I got it wrong.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

theres a formula

OpenStudy (mertsj):

That doesn't seem like nearly enough interest for 20 years on $184,000

OpenStudy (anonymous):

20*.0705*184k-(15*.0705*184k)=?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

umm Ok thomasj your formula confuses me

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A=P(1+r/n)^nt
