The amount of the interest is $755.80 .

Option (c) is correct .

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula

Amount = Principle + Interest

Where P is the principle , r is the rate of interest in the decimal form and t is the time in years .

As given

Jason's savings account has a balance of $2179 .

The account is compounded quarterly at the rate of 6% for 5 years .

P = $2179

6% is written in the decimal form

= 0.06

r = 0.06

t = 5 years

Put all the values in the formula

Amount = $ 2934.80 (Approx)

Thus

$2934.80 = $2179 + Interest

Interest = $2934.80 - $2179

Interest = $ 755.80

Therefore the amount of the interest is $755.80 .

Option (c) is correct .
