If $535 is invested at an interest rate of 6% per year and is compounded continuously, how much will the investment be worth in 10 years?

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

use the continuous componding formula : \(\huge A = Pe^{r*t} \)

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

P = invested money r = interest rate t = time in years A = final money

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

can you give a try plugging in the numbers in formula

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A = 535?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A=4eln(2)8 Yes 1024 GJ

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

nopes. A is the thing we need to find out !

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

535 is the initial invested money so, P = 535

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A= 535 e^(.06*10)

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

r = 6% = 0.06 t = 10 years = 10 plugin these values in the formula and try solving... .

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

thats right! @Snapbacklive has it !!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yup

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I can't figure it out

OpenStudy (dumbcow):

P = 535 r = 6% = 0.06 t = 10 --> A = 535*e^(.6)
