Connor invested $77,000 in an account paying an interest rate of 4.5% compounded
continuously. Assuming no deposits or withdrawals are made, how much money, to
the nearest hundred dollars, would be in the account after 12 years?

Respuesta :

Answer:

There would be $118,580 but to the nearest hundred there would be $118,600.

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer is 118,600 because 4.5% of 77,000 is 3465 and 3465 multiplied by 12 is 41580 and 77,000 plus 41580 is 118,580 but rounded to the nearest hundred it would be 118,600.

P.S Can I have brainliest?

Answer:

this answer is actually correct. the answer is 132100.

Step-by-step explanation:

Compounded Continuously:

A=Pe^{rt}

A=Pe

rt

P=77000          r=0.045         t=12

Given values

A=77000e^{0.045(12)}

A=77000e

0.045(12)

Plug in

A=77000e^{0.54}

A=77000e

0.54

Multiply

A=132132.528388

A=132132.528388

Use calculator (with e button)

A= aprroximatley  132100

A≈132100

Round to nearest hundred dollars

please heart!
