The amount of money, ma, in Jenny’s account after t years can be represented using the equation ma=2000(1.05)^t. If Jenny would have invested the same amount of money at the same interest rate four years ago, the equation representing the amount of money, mb, in her account would be represented using the equation mb=2000(1.05)^t+4. Which of the following is equivalent to mb? </SPAN>\n" );
