Algebra.Com's Answer #649501 by fractalier(6550)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! P(2004) = P(1990)(1.10)^14 = 1250(1.1)^14 = 4747 or so \n" ); document.write( "Then we repeat the calculation with new numbers... \n" ); document.write( "P(2010) = P(2004)(1.06)^6 = 4747(1.06)^6 = 6734 or so \n" ); document.write( "Choice D. \n" ); document.write( " |
