Answer: $585.60

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of years that would have passed is;

= 2016 - 1626

= 390 years

Using simple interest, the investment will be worth;

= Principal * ( 1 + rate * number of years)

= 24 * (1 + 0.06* 390)

= $585.60

How many significant digits are there in 17.0
svet-max [94.6K]
The answer is three significant figures. The 1 and the 7 are both significant, because they are non-zero quantities.
This is where significant figures gets a little more complicated, because if a zero is used as a placeholder (i.e. 0.00027 cm) then it is insignificant.
But in the case above, the zero isn't being used as a placeholder, and thus, is significant.
