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 represented the value of the investment after 1 year. Rewrite this expression with out parentheses. Evaluate the polynomial if p = $200.
\n" ); document.write( "and r = 10 %
\n" ); document.write( "------------
\n" ); document.write( "P(1+r+(r/2)^2)
\n" ); document.write( "P+Pr+(Pr^2/4)
\n" ); document.write( "200+200*0.1+200*0.1^2/4
\n" ); document.write( "200+20+200*0.01/4
\n" ); document.write( "220+1/2
\n" ); document.write( "$220.50
