Answer 2

is this correct>??

V = a(1 + g)t

V = 745(1 + .16)4

V = 745(1.16)4

V ≈ 745(1.81063936)

V ≈ 1349

Answer 3

V = 745(1 + .16)^t

Answer 4

t=4 i thought?

Answer 6

yes, you've got it

Answer 7

obviously t=4 after 4 years

Answer 8

There are two parts to the question:
Write the modelling equation: @stgreen's equation with time left as variable 't'
estimate after 4 years: your original answer with 4 subbed in
