For the first question, a TWIN problem was solved at this link

https://www.algebra.com/algebra/homework/word/finance/Money_Word_Problems.faq.question.1206598.html

with complete explanations and formulas, so you can use it as your TEMPLATE.


The second question is NONSENSICAL (= makes no sense), since the compounded account
earns different amounts in different years.


Who generates non-sensical questions ?

        - Your textbook ?

        - Your professor ?

        - You on your own, by creating them on your knee in the garage?
