Amount in compound interest = p(1 + r/t)^nt where p is the initial deposit, r = rate, t = number of compunding in a period and n = period.

Here, Amount after t years = 103(1.02)^t
i.e. 1 + r = 1.02
r = 1.02 - 1 = 0.02
Therefore, annual interest rate = 0.02 x 100 = 2%

Answer:

The annual interest rate is 20%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, we know that,

If an sum of money P is increasing yearly at a fixed rate,

Then the amount after t years,

A=P(1+r)^t

Where, r is the annual rate,

t is the number of years,

Here, the given amount after t years,

A'=103(1.02)^t

By comparing,

1 + r = 1.02

⇒ r = 0.02   ( Subtracting 1 on both sides )

⇒ r = 20 %

Hence, the annual interest rate is 20%.

Dima020 [189]
Well, since she bought 3.42 pounds of green apples, then you can subtract 3 lbs off of that, so she bought .42 lbs of green apples, and 2.19 lbs red apples
So now, you just need to add .42 and 2.19
.42 + 2.19 = 2.61, so she has 2.61 lbs of apples left
Hope this helped!
