1. Find the principal amount:

P = 2500

2. Find the annual interest rate:

R = 0.45

3. Find the time in years (6 months is 0.5 years):

T = 0.5

4. Use the simple interest formula:

I = P \times R \times T

5. Substitute the values into the formula:

I = 2500 \times 0.45 \times 0.5

6. Calculate the interest:

I = 562.50

The interest he will pay you is

562.50

User One of the applications of the derivative of a function is its use in Physics, where a function that at every instant t associates the number s(t), this function s is called the clockwise function of the movement. By deriving the time function we obtain the velocity function at time t, denoted by v(t). A body has a time function that determines its position in meters at time t as S(t)=t.³√t+2.t . Present the speed of this body at time t = 8 s.
