So for this you will be using an exponential equation, which is  with a=initial value, b=growth/decay, y = total balance, and x = # of years
 with a=initial value, b=growth/decay, y = total balance, and x = # of years
In this case, a = 500, and since with this problem the initial value is growing, you will add 100% to 6% to get 106%, or 1.06. The equation will be formed as such: 
With this problem, just plug in 15 into x and solve for y: 
In short, after 15 years Tom will have $1198.28 in his account.
 
        
                    
             
        
        
        
Your answer would be 1+1=2 
This took me a while to figure out

If you need an explnation, I can provide it if needed! Cheers!
 
        
             
        
        
        
<span>The answer would be 20. 
The question is asking you to find the value of the expression for when c = 100, so we have to put 100 where c is in the equation. Given that fact, we start with c/5, then put the 100 in for c. 
c/5 = ??
100/5 = 20. </span>
