okay so what you use is the \[A=P(1+\frac{ r }{ n})^{nt}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

since this is compounded annually you have to make n to 1 because annual means yearly.

6% is your rate, so change it to a decimal. which is 0.06

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

your starting amount or PRINCIPLE, P is $1,000
