Answer:

[tex]M=\$605.58[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Issac's Debit [tex]P=\$8100[/tex]

Annual interest rate  [tex]r=21.9\%[/tex]

Number of payments [tex]n=16[/tex]

 

Generally the equation for Monthly payment  is mathematically given by

 [tex]M=\frac{Pr}{1-(1+r)^-^n}[/tex]

 [tex]M=\frac{1800*0.0219}{1-(1+0.0219)^-^{16}}[/tex]

 [tex]M=\$605.58[/tex]

Therefore Payment for each month is given as

 [tex]M=\$605.58[/tex]
