One thing wrong is there is not closing parenthasees after x+1

Sara Blake's grandmother gave her $3000.00 to save for college. She put it in a savings account that earns 6% interest per year.

I assume you are looking for the total. The total amount in the account will be $4,781.54 if the interest is compounded annually.

If she is earning 6% interest, the balance in her account will be multiplied by 1.06 each year.
