Answer:

The amount of the repayment check was $21862.29.

Step-by-step explanation:

Principal P = $19221

Rate r = 9.7% = 0.097

Time t = 17 months = [tex]17/12= 1.41667[/tex] years

[tex]I= p\times r\times t[/tex]

[tex]I= 19221\times0.097\times1.41667[/tex] = $2641.29

The loan repayment is the original principal plus the interest.

= [tex]19221+2641.29=21862.29[/tex] dollars

The amount of the repayment check was $21862.29.
