Answer:

Amount after 8 year will be $240.0755

So option (d) is correct option

Explanation:

We have given principle amount P = $125

Rate of interest r = 8.5 %

Time period n = 8 years

We have to find the amount which she get after 8 years

We know that amount is given by

[tex]A=P(1+\frac{r}{100})^n[/tex]

So amount will be [tex]A=125\times (1+\frac{8.5}{100})^8=125\times \times 1.920=$240.0755[/tex]

So amount after 8 year will be $240.0755

So option (d) is correct option  

Answer:The answer is$240.08

Explanation:

A = P(1+r/100)^n

A=125(1+8.5/100)^8

A= 125(1+0.085)^8

A=125(1.085)^8

A=125(1.9206)

A=$240.08
