Josiah invests $360 into an account that accrues 3% interest annually. Assuming no deposits or withdrawals are made, which equation represents the amount of money in Josiah’s account, y, after x years?
Answers
Answer:
let me explain
Step-by-step explanation:
Let he invested for X years with rate of 3%
case 1 by simple interest
3×x+100/100×360
let us consider that Josiah invested money for 4 years then
3×4+100/100×360
112/100×360
112/25×90 = 112/5×18=......
in case second
compound interest
amount is 360
let say he invested money for X years
then amount will be 360(100+rate/100)^x
360×(103/100)^4
Step-by-step explanation:
The future amount of money that is invested currently at a certain interest that is compounded annually is calculated through the equation,
F = P x (1 + i)^n
where F is the future worth, P is the present worth, i is the interest rate, and n is the number of years. Substituting the known values and variables in the given, F = ($360)(1.03)^x
