Alfred is 0.7 ounces at the beginning.
After one week had passed, he is 11% larger. 0.7 * 1.11
After two weeks, the dust bunny's size is once again 11% larger.
0.7 * 1.11 * 1.11, or 0.7 * 1.11².

From here you can see that each week the dust bunny's size multiplies by 1.11. (1 whole plus 11 percent) How many times it is multiplied can be expressed with exponents.

w = 0.7*1.11^{x}

James deposited $575 into a bank account that earned 5.5% simple interest each year. If no money was deposited into or withdrawn
Basile [38]
The answer is $654.06.
5.5% of $575 is $31.63.  575 x 0.055 = 31.63
This means that in one year he earns $31.63. In two years it will be $63.25 (31.63 x 2 = 63.25)
Then in half a year it will be $15.81 (31.63/2 = 15.81)
Finally add 15.81 and 63.25 to get $79.06 which you then add to the initial $575 to get the total amount earned in 2 1/2 years which is $654.06.
