Emily Mcgee · Answer 1

Hey there!

Find the interest rate by multiplying 15000 by. 08 (8%) and you would get 1200. So 1200 is the interest rate. Add 1200 to 15000 and you would get 16,200

So he would have to pay back $16,200 =.

Justine Fry · Answer 2

He would pay $1,200.

Multiply 15,000 * 0.08 = 1,200

And since its 1 year you can multiply it by 1 but its the same.

So the answer is $1,200
