Answer 1

Answer:  $26,000

Explanation:

i = simple interest

P = 25,000 = amount loaned

r = interest rate in decimal form = 0.04

t = number of years = 1

So,

i = P*r*t

i = 25000*0.04*1

i = 1000

Howie needs to pay $1,000 in interest on top of the $25,000 loaned to him. In total, he needs to pay back 1,000+25,000 = 26,000 dollars.
