Answer 1

Answer:

daily

Step-by-step explanation:

To answer this try plugging in each type of compund: daily, monthly, quarterly, and annually.

5670(1+0.041/365)^(365*19)

= 12356.04

365= daily

so your answer would be that the interest compounds daily.

100 + 4.1 = 104.1%

104.1% = 1.041

$5670 x 1.041^19 = $12165.97
