Answer:

The simple interest is $720.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a simple interest problem.

The simple interest formula is given by:

[tex]E = P*I*t[/tex]

In which E are the earnings, P is the principal(the initial amount of money), I is the interest rate(yearly, as a decimal) and t is the time.

In this problem, we have that:

[tex]P = 6000, r = 0.03, t = 4[/tex]

So

[tex]E = P*I*t = 6000*0.03*4 = 720[/tex]

The simple interest is $720.
