Can someone help me with the problem. Seems easy but having trouble doing it correctly.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok what your gonna do is solve for the numbers in the parentheses first

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So 1.03/365?

OpenStudy (phi):

the first step is do 0.03/365 and save the result. can you do that ?

OpenStudy (phi):

when the problem is \[ 1 + \frac{0.03}{365} \] you do division or multiply before add so first do 0.03/365

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok so thats 0.00008219178082

OpenStudy (anonymous):

+1 = 1.00008219178082

OpenStudy (e.mccormick):

Then do the exponent part.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so 365 x2 = 730

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so i have 15000 (1.00008219178082) ^(730)

OpenStudy (e.mccormick):

And raise 1.00008219178082 to that power. After that, finally multiply.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thanks!

np. It is all order of operations stuff. Remember your PEMDAS and a lot of problems are easier.
