Answer: I = $ 154.53
Explanation:
First, converting R percent to r a decimal, r = R/100 = 4.5%/100 = 0.045 per year, then, solving our equation.
I = 572.34 × 0.045 × 6
I = 572.34 × 0.27
I = 154.5318
I ≈ $154.53
The simple interest accumulated on a principle of $572.34 at a rate of 4.5% per year, for 6 years is $154.53.
Hope this helps
