Based on the information given, we can calculate the interest accrued in the first month for the credit card with a balance of $1,675.00 at a 9.75% APR.

Interest = Principal * Rate * Time

In this case, Principal = $1,675.00 and Rate = 9.75%. Since the time period is not specified, we assume it is one month.

Interest = $1,675.00 * 9.75% * 1

Converting the APR to a decimal, we get:

Interest = $1,675.00 * 0.0975 * 1 = $162.52

Therefore, the interest accrued in the first month for the first credit card is $162.52.

None of the given answer choices match this amount, so it seems there may be an error.
