@mathmate @skullpatrol @welshfella

OpenStudy (welshfella):

tell me how you got C

OpenStudy (liv1234):

I used the simple interest formula, but I think I put the numbers in wrong.

OpenStudy (liv1234):

Actually wait, my answer was D for 19 I mean. Sorry, I got the number mixed up!

OpenStudy (welshfella):

i see T. he problem with the question is it doesnt say how the interest is calculated.

OpenStudy (liv1234):

I think my teacher would want me to assume its compounded monthly if that helps.

OpenStudy (welshfella):

After the deposit of 1775 is paid he owes 5723 - 1775 = $3948 which is then subject to interest.

OpenStudy (liv1234):

Okay, so then I would calculate that for four years? I mean the answer I keep getting isn't an option and that's why I'm being thrown off.

OpenStudy (liv1234):

None of the answers I'm getting are any of my options.

OpenStudy (welshfella):

I#m getting different answers too

OpenStudy (liv1234):

What should i go with?

OpenStudy (triciaal):

I thought it was just me simple interest answer is not there have you done future value of an annuity? what class is this for?

OpenStudy (will.h):

For 19 you may use the interest exponential form P(1+r)^x Where P is initial cost R is rate of change X is time in years Substitute the values but remember that they made down payment of 1775 therefore you'll have to cut that off the total initial number 5723 - 1775 = 3948 Now substitute 3948(1+0.102)^4 Which equals 5822.419 Matches non of ur choices. Either I made mistake or the question indicates a flow
