Answer:Maya will expect to pay $ 986 in just interests for the Loan

Step-by-step explanation:

I will use my last answer and change the numbers

Simple interest is applied just to the principal loan.

Because the question is just for the Simple interest we can use the formula to find the interest:

P*i*n

Where P is the principal (loan) = $ 12,000

i is the simple interest rate: 7.5%

n is the Period of time = 5 years.

Just Replace.

Therefore the simple interest is: P*i*n = $ 12,000*7.5%*5 = $ 4,500
