What are you having trouble with?
Hello are you there?
i need to solve the problem
idk where to plug the numbers tho
No I mean you have the formula so what part of it are you having problems with
Ok hang on a sec
\(\qquad \textit{Compound Interest Earned Amount}\\ A=P\left(1+\frac{r}{n}\right)^{nt} \qquad \begin{cases} A=\textit{current amount}\\ P=\textit{original amount deposited}\to &\$6,000\\ r=rate\to 7.1\%\to \frac{7.1}{100}\to &0.071\\ n=\textit{times it compounds per year}\to &4\\ t=years\to &12 \end{cases}\)
Thx jdoe
I think that sums it up
quarterly, means every quarter, there are 4 quarters for a whole, so the cycle or period is 4
but i did that and i ended up with like 5,000 which was not any of the answer choices
