Can anyone help me with this math problem?
wariber [46]
Lemme give you a cheap answer, by simply using the "compound interest formula", which is what that is, 2% compounded yearly

thus \bf \qquad \textit{Compound Interest Earned Amount}&#10;\\\\&#10;A=P\left(1+\frac{r}{n}\right)^{nt}&#10;\qquad &#10;\begin{cases}&#10;A=\textit{current amount}\to&\boxed{y}\\&#10;P=\textit{original amount deposited}\to &\$23000\\&#10;r=rate\to 2\%\to \frac{2}{100}\to &0.02\\&#10;n=&#10;\begin{array}{llll}&#10;\textit{times it compounds per year}\\&#10;\textit{per year, meaning once}&#10;\end{array}\to &1\\&#10;&#10;t=years\to &\boxed{x}&#10;\end{cases}

plug in those values, and simplify
