3.20 divieded my 2 =1.6 spring 3.20 +1.6 =4.8
A = a+b/ 2 h the / is a fraction btw.
The Present value of an annuity is given by PV = P(1 - (1 + r/t)^-nt)/(r/t)
where: P is the monthly payment, r is the annual rate = 7% = 0.07, t is the number of periods in one year = 12 and n is the number of years = 3.
18,000 - 6,098 = P(1 - (1 + 0.07/12)^-(3 x 12)) / (0.07/12)
11,902 = P(1 - (1 + 0.07/12)^-36) / (0.07/12)
P = 0.07(11,902) / 12(1 - (1 + 0.07/12)^-36) = 367.50
Therefore, monthly payment = $367.50
