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 6 months (0.5 year) = 1,950(1 + (4.25/100)/4)^(0.5 x 4) = 1,950(1 +
0.0425/4)^2 = 1,950(1 + 0.010625)^2 = 1,950(1.010625)^2 = 1,950(1.0213629) =
$1,991.66
Compound interest = Amount - principal (initial deposit) = $1,991.66 - $1,950 = $41.66
So you have to find how many seconds it takes to fill up with 1 inch.
TO find that, you have to divide 45/3 which equals to 15.
So it takes 15 seconds for 1 inch. The question is asking you to find out how many seconds will it take to fill the tub with 20 inches.
SO your gonna multiply 15*20.
15*20 = 300
So it would take 300 seconds to fill up Camden's tub.
