Respuesta :

Given:

[tex]\begin{gathered} Pincipal,P=1728 \\ Amount,A=1805.76 \\ Time,t=6 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Required: To calculate the Interest paid and annual interest rate.

Explanation: The Interest paid can be calculated as follows

[tex]\begin{gathered} Interest=Amount-Principal \\ =1805.76-1728 \\ =77.76 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Now, the interest rate can be determined by using the formula for Interest

[tex]Interest=\frac{P\times R\times T}{100}[/tex]

Putting the values

[tex]77.76=\frac{1728\times R\times6}{100}[/tex]

Solving for R gives

[tex]\begin{gathered} R=\frac{7776}{1728\times6} \\ =0.75\% \end{gathered}[/tex]

Final Answer: The Interest paid is 77.76 and the interest rate is 0.75%.

Since the interest rate is relatively low, in this case, it is good to loan.
