What is the problem?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

You have decided to purchase a new 2014 Mini Cooper Roadster for your birthday! The price of the roadster is $28,822 and the current interest rate is 4%. You will take out a loan to cover the cost of your purchase and will not be making a down payment.  1. Using the function A(t)=P(1+r)^t, create a function that represents your new car loan. The principle, P, will be the price of the vehicle. 2.  Using the function you created in #1, determine how much money you will pay for the car if you take out a 5-year loan

O_O I definitely don't know.

Sorry.

We are told to use the formula A(t)=P(1+r)^t to calculate the total amount required to pay off this loan (which is represented by A(t) ), and to regard P as the purchase price of the car (before interest). Simply substitute the given values of P, r and t into this equation and evaluate it. Hint: P=$28,822 and r=0.04. For Part 1, leave " t " as is, so that you obtain a general formula for A(t). For Part 2, substitute 5 for t and evaluate the function.
