Answer by adamchapman(301) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Use
where:
x = amount after interest has been calculated
a = starting amount
i = interest rate = 0.09
t = time (in years)= 20
So
Which gives the solution x=$44835.29 to the nearest cent.
I hope this helps.
P.S. I am trying to start up my own homework help website. I would be extremely grateful if you would e-mail me some feedback on the help you received to adam.chapman@student.manchester.ac.uk
