Answer:

The amount of Mark's Total payment is $9478.15.

Explanation:

Given : Mark borrowed $5,500 at 11.5 percent for five years.

To find : What is the amount of Mark's total payment?

Solution :

Using compound interest formula,


A=P(1+r)^t

Where A is the amount,

P is the principle P=5,500

r is the rate r=11.5%=0.115

t is the time t= 5 years

Substitute the value,


A=P(1+r)^t


A=5500(1+0.115)^5


A=5500(1.115)^5


A=5500(1.7233)


A=9478.15

Therefore, The amount of Mark's Total payment is $9478.15.
