Answer:
$1800
Step-by-step explanation:
12000(1+0.05x 3)
= 13800
13800 - 12000
$1800
The two numbers are very near 7200 and 300. The sum of those is a good estimate of your sum:
... 7200 + 300 = 7500
_____
If you're taught methods of addition that include "make a ten" or "make a hundred", you know you can "borrow" a 1 from 7203 (making it 7202) and loan that 1 to 299 to make it 300. Now, you know your sum is exactly 7202+300 = 7502, with no estimation necessary.
Answer:
J Compound interest; $298.65
Step-by-step explanation:
Interest compounding pays interest on the interest. For the same annual rate, any amount of compounding will earn more interest.
For short time periods, the effect of compounding is not great. In general, it will be a fraction of the equivalent simple interest rate. Here, the effective multiplier for annual compounding is ...
1.051^4 = 1.22024337
and the effective multiplier for simple interest is ...
1 +0.051·4 = 1.204
Then the difference in interest rate multiplier for the 4-year period is ...
1.22024337 -1.204 = 0.01614337
That fraction of the $18500 principal is $298.65.
Compound interest earns $298.65 more than simple interest in this scenario.
Hope this helps, have an amazing day!
