Answer 1

The answer is B

Explanation:

Given: Cory owes $1,000 to his bank. During the time of his loan, he is charged a real of 12% simple annual interest

To find: If he does not make any payments on his loan, draw table showing the relationship between the amount he owes and the number of months

Solution:

Loan amount P = $ 1000

Rate of interest R = 12 % per annum

SI = P * R * T /100

one month T = (1/12) Years

Interest per month = 1000 * 12 * (1/12) /100 = $ 10

Hence interest chaarges $ 10 per month

Cory owes to bank the loan amount and interest

Cory owes = 1000 + 10 n

where n is the number of months

Month Amount

0 1000

1 1010

2 1020

3 1030

4 1040

5 1050

6 1060

7 1070

8 1080

9 1090

and so on
