There are 9 total.
30 mins = 1800 secs.
1800 divided by 9 = 200

Suppose you invested $1500 in an ac count that paid an annual of 3% compound monthly. How much would you have after 1 year?

Sati [7]

Answer:

1545.62

Step-by-step explanation:

The calculation of compound interests uses this formula:

<h2> $A = P (1 + \frac{r}{n} )^{n*t}$ </h2>

Where A = total amount, P = principal or amount of money deposited, r = annual interest rate, n = number of times compounded per year and t = time in years.

So, if we plug-in the numbers of the problem we have:

<h2> $A = 1500 (1 + \frac{0.03}{12} )^{12*1}$ </h2>

Which gives us:

$A = 1500 * 1.0025^{12} = 1500 * 1.030416 = 1545.62$

For a grand total of 1,545.62 including capital and interests.
