The borrower owes $14,760.82  at the end of 8 years

What is compounding interest?

Compounding interest means that earlier interest would earn more interest in the future alongside the loan principal.

Note that in this case the loan continues to accumulate interest because there no repayments, in other words, the loan balance after 8 years, which comprises of the principal and interest for 8 years can be computed using the future value formula of a single cash flow(the single cash flow is the principal) as shown thus:

FV=PV*(1+r/n)^(n*t)

FV=loan balance after 8 years=unknown

PV=loan amount=$5,000

r=annual interest=14%

n=number of times in a year that interest is compounded=2(twice a year)

t=loan period=8 years

FV=$5000*(1+14%/2)^(2*8)

FV=$5000*(1.07)^16

FV=$5000*2.95216374856541

FV=loan balance after 8 years=$14,760.82

If 2= (1+ r)^7 solve the equation for r?​
solong [7]

7 = r^1/2 is the same as saying 7 = square root of r. So, to get rid of the square root sign on the r, you need to square it, and when you do something to one side of the equation, you have to do the same to the other side. So after squaring both sides, you get 49 = r.
