jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):
sorry i dont know this formula
OpenStudy (isabelle99):
P=2000
r=6%
t=4years
so i think the equation would be
\[A=2000e^{0.06(4)}\]
i jsut need help solving it because i forgot what i am suppose to do with the e
jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):
e may be the Euler number - do you know it ?
jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):
e = 2,71 is a mathematical constant
jhonyy9 (jhonyy9):
so than you dont know the value of e how you ve got this result ?
