Answer:

Option 4.7% = 3,500 x 4.7% =$164.50 simple annual interest.

82.25 this is what Scott will pay in 6 months at simple interest.

 

Option 4.2% =3,500 x (1 +0.042/12)^6 =3,500 x 1.0035^6=$3,574.15.

3,500 =$74.15 this is what Scott will pay in 6 months at compounded interest.

 

The compound option is cheaper by: 74.15 =$8.10.

Answer: 4.75
