Question 164145: I can't figure this question out! I think the formula is A= p (r +1) t, but I don't really know how to do it!
You've invested $5,000 in an account that earns .5% compounded per onth. The formula for compound interest gives us the equation a= 5,000(1.005)^n, where n is the number of compound periods and a is the amount of money in the account after n periods. Assuming there were no deposits or withdrawals, approximately how much money will be in the account after 10 years?
So far I have... a= 5,000(1.005)^120 (120 being the # of months in 10 years)
Is there an easier way to figure this out rather than try to multiply the number by itself 120 times?!
