the answer is 32.35% that is the rate
Answer:
Original Value= $361.21
Step-by-step explanation:
Giving the following information:
The value of the savings bond increases by 3% each year. One year after it was purchased, the value of the savings bond was $515.
<u>To calculate the original value of the bond, we need to use the following formula:</u>
OV= PV/(1+i)^n
OV= original value
PV= present value
i= increase rate
n= number of months
OV= 515 / (1,03^12)
OV= $361.21
Y = 500(1 + r)^x; where r is the rate and x is the number of years.
500(1 + r)^2 = 551.25
(1 + r)^2 = 551.25/500 = 1.1025
1 + r = sqrt(1.1025) = 1.05
Therefore, the equation that represents y, the value of the item after x years is
y = 500(1.05)^x
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
6.15/5=1.23
The answer is B.
