Problema Solution

Suppose you invest $8000 at an annual interest rate of 5% compounded continuously. How much money will you hhave in 6 years

Answer provided by our tutors

let


P = $8000 the money invested

r = 0.05 or 5%

t = 6 years

A = the future value


A = P*e^(r*t)


A = 8000*e^(0.05*6)


e = 2.7183


A = $10,798.89


In 6 years there will be $10,798.89 in the account.
