Help pleasee
What do u need help with?
Hey your on florida vitual too
Yes
Its fun stuff but very very hard
It is
Ok so first of all @ana_stasia44 can you tell me that what is the formula for finding amount?
@ana_stasia44 please reply... I can only help you if you will support me..
Sorry, I don't understand formulas yet, I just started this chapter :/
Oh.., No problem but that is the most important part of the chapter... http://qrc.depaul.edu/StudyGuide2009/Notes/Savings%20Accounts/Compound%20Interest.htm
\(\large{ A = P ( 1 + \frac{r}{100})^{nt}}\) where : P = principal amount (the initial amount you borrow or deposit) r = annual rate of interest (as a decimal) t = number of years the amount is deposited or borrowed for. A = amount of money accumulated after n years, including interest. n = number of times the interest is compounded per year
Oh, okay. I kind of understand now.
this is the right formula, but it does't match with any of the answers
Tell me what you get after putting the given values in the formula...?
Oh do you mean simple interest @satellite73 ?
\[\large{SI = \frac{PRT}{100}}\]
i think they must be asking about fictional "simple interest" so for example $900 at 10% for 3 years they compute by 10% of $900 is $90 and \(3\times \$90=\$270\)
i think this only because of the answers given. this is not really correct, but i guess that is what they want
and then Amount = SI + P : \[\large{\frac{$900 * 10 * 3 }{100}= $ 270=SI }\] Hence Amount = SI + P = $ 900 + $ 270 = $1170
here is another example 6% of 1,000 = .\(06\times 1000=60\) and \(4\times \$60=\$240\)
So they are asking for SI simply..
But then why did they give 4 years @satellite73 ?
according to me it will be : ..
@satellite73 what will you say?
Well I think you also did the same
@ana_stasia44 see the attachment I used the formula: \[\large{\textbf{SI}=\frac{PRT}{100}}\]
Oh, I see. Thanks for your help (:
(: best of luck , try it for once.. thanks!!!
