How do I make this into an exponential equation and then make a simplified version of that equation using this formula? So this question says I have 2 coins. Coin A has an initial value of $25 and that increases by 7% annualy. Coin B is initially worth $40 and increases 5% annualy. The formula I need to use is V(t)=P(1+r/n)^nt where the Value (V) after time (t) of the initial investment is calculated using a rate (r) each (n) intervals. So I need 4 equations. A function for both of the coins using the above formula and then simplified versions of each of those. Thanks, will give med

Forgot to mention, the ammount of time passed has been 45 years so I think t=45

OpenStudy (campbell_st):

well because both coins increase annually then n = 1 you just need to compound interest formula Coin A: P = 25, r = 0.07 (this is the percentage as a decimal) and t = 45 Coin B: P = 40, r = 0.05 t = 45 so substitute each set of values into your equation to find the value after 45 years
