Respuesta :

Answer:

The total amount is 1214.4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

principal p=$1200

interest rate r= 12%= 12/100= 0.12

time t= 1

n= 12

we know that the compound interest formula is

A=p(1+r/n )^nt

A=1200(1+0.12/12)^1*12

A=1200(1+0.01)^12

A=1200(1.001)^12

A=1200*1.012

A=1214.

Answer:

Correct answers:

$2928$

Step-by-step explanation:

$2928$

We express the interest r in decimal form, so we have r=12%=12100=0.12. The principal is P0=$1,200, so the interest is I=P0⋅r⋅t=$1,200⋅0.12⋅12=$1,728. The interest paid is $1,728, so the total amount repayable is $1,200+$1,728=$2,928.
