Answer 1

Answer:

Interest will amount to $142.58

Total amount Levi will have to pay back at the end of 6 months=$7271.58

Step-by-step explanation:

Simple interest=principal×rate×time

Principal=$7129

Rate=4%=0.04

Time=6 month=0.5 year

Simple interest=principal×rate×time

=$7129×0.04×0.5

=$142.58

Interest will amount to $142.58

Total amount Levi will have to pay back at the end of 6 months

=principal + total interest

=$7129+$142.58

=$7271.58
