use the formula
\[\Large A = P*e^{r*t}\]
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
In this case,
P = 535
e = 2.71828182846... (it's a constant like pi = 3.14...)
r = 0.06
t = 10
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
you don't have to use 2.71828182846... as most calculators will have an 'e' button
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
just use the 'e' symbol in its place
