Question

angelia has $148.02 in a savings account that she opened 10 years ago. the amount of money in the account can be represented by the expression 148.02 left-parenthesis 1.04 right-parenthesis superscript t minus 10 baseline, where t represents the number of years since she opened the account. which expression is equivalent to 148.02 left-parenthesis 1.04 right-parenthesis superscript t minus 10 baseline?

Answer 1

Based on the derivation below, the expression that is equivalent to148.02(1.04)^(t - 10) is 100(1.04)^t.

How do we derive an equivalent expression?

The expression in the question can be rewritten as follows:

148.02(1.04)^(t - 10)

The expression that is equivalent to it can be obtained as follows:

= 148.02 * 1.04^t * 1.04^-10

= 148.02 * (1 / 1.04^10) * 1.04^t

= 148.02 * (1 / 1.4802) * 1.04^t

= 100* 1.04^t

= 100(1.04)^t
