The initial investment = $250
<span>annual simple interest rate of 3% = 0.03
</span>
Let the number of years = n
the annual increase = 0.03 * 250
At the beginning of year 1 ⇒ n = 1 ⇒⇒⇒ A(1) = 250 + 0 * 250 * 0.03 = 250
At the beginning of year 2 ⇒ n = 2 ⇒⇒⇒ A(2) = 250 + 1 * 250 * 0.03
At the beginning of year 3 ⇒ n = 3 ⇒⇒⇒ A(2) = 250 + 2 * 250 * 0.03
and so on .......
∴ <span>The formula that can be used to find the account’s balance at the beginning of year n is:
</span>
A(n) = 250 + (n-1)(0.03 • 250)
<span>At the beginning of year 14 ⇒ n = 14 ⇒ substitute with n at A(n)</span>
∴ A(14) = 250 + (14-1)(0.03*250) = 347.5
So, the correct option is <span>D.A(n) = 250 + (n – 1)(0.03 • 250); $347.50

Hi,
Work:

1. Move expression 1/4x to the left side and change its sign, also move constant -6 to the right side and change its sign. Now you equation looks like this:

2. Write all numerators above the least common denominator 12x.

3. Calculate the difference between 1/2 and 6.

4. Simplify equation using cross multiplication.

5. Switch the sides of equation.

6. Divide both sides of equation by -132.

7. Results:

Hope this helps.
