THIS IS URGENT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Answer 1

Answer:

d. 17

Step-by-step explanation:

You are going to want to use the simple interest formula for this. The one below is modified for solving the interest earned.

$I=Prt$

I = interest amount

P = principal amount

r = interest rate (decimal form)

t = time (years)

First, change 4% into its decimal form:

4% ->  $\frac{4}{100}$ -> 0.04

Also, since the equation is in years, 6 months will be represented by 0.5. Next, plug in the values into the equation:

$I=850(0.04)(0.5)$

$I=17$

Your answer will be d. 17
