He aided the americans with horses and troops i think
They dressed up as Native Americans and threw tea off ships. It was the Boston Tea Party.
They claimed that it was fought to protect the colonists. However, the colonists knew that it was fought for British financial interests
The formula to find compound interest is
A = P ( 1 + r/n )^nt
Use this to solve your problem.
A = 5,000 ( 1 + 0.08/1 )^1•2
A = 5,000 • 1.1664
A = 5,832
Now this question is only asking about the interest gained. To find this, subtract the original amount from the new amount.
5,832 - 5,000 = 832
Your answer is $832
