Question 146320: Can you please help me?
Compounded semiannually. P dollars is invested at annual interest rate r for 1 year. If the interest is compounded semiannually, then the polynomial P (1 + r/2)^2 represents the value of the investment after 1 year. Rewrite this expression without parenthesis. Evaluate the polynomial if P = $200 and r = 10%.
