Based on the cost of the car and the interest rate, the amount Tracy is to pay is $638.41.

<h3>How much should Tracy pay?</h3>

The cost of the car is the present value of an annuity because Tracy's payment will be constant.

First find the monthly rate:

= 11% / 12 months

= 0.92%

The number of periods:

= 3 x 12 months

= 36 months

Amount to be paid is:

19,500 = Amount x (1 - ( 1 + 0.92%) ⁻³⁶) / 0.92%

Amount = 19,500 / 30.544874328

= $638.41
