The correct answer is the last choice.

In a compound interest equation, the first value is the initial investment. In this case, it would be 5000. After the 5000, you would enter the rate that is being used.

Answer:

The coefficient, 5,000, best describes Suzanne's initial earnings.

Step-by-step explanation:

5000 represents the initial amount

here the initial earnings

Whenever amount earned is increasing compoundly we write

if rate of increasse is r% and t = no of weeks

Earnings at end of t weeks = [tex]5000(1+\frac{r}{100} )^t[/tex]

for all t = 1,2,3....

Thus 5000 appears as a coefficient for all t's

5000 is nothing but the initial earnings

Option D is right

The coefficient, 5,000, best describes Suzanne's initial earnings.
