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%.

A radio station advertises a contest with ten cash prizes totaling $5510. There is to be a $100 difference between each successi
gavmur [86]
5510 = x + (x + 100) + (x + 200) + (x + 300) + (x + 400) + (x + 500) + (x + 600) + (x +700) + (x + 800) + (x + 900) = 10x + 4500

=> 10x = 5510 - 4500 = 1010

=> x = 1010 / 10 = 101

=> least prize = 101 and greatest prize = 101+ 900 = 1001.<----- answer
