Answer:

21

Step-by-step explanation:

Identify the value of each variable in the formula. Be sure to put the percent in decimal form. Be sure the units match—the rate is per hour and the time is in hours.

AA0rt=?=1000=−0.08/hour=48hours

Substitute the values in the formula.

AA=A0ert=1,000e−0.08⋅48

Compute the amount.

A≈21.49

Round to the nearest whole number.

A≈21
