compound interest equation for annually compounded

A=final amount
P=principal
r=rate in decimal
t=time in years
given that
A=1550
P=1000
r=5.5%=0.055
find t

divide both sides by 1000

take ln of both sides

use ln rule 

divide both sides by ln(1.055)

using a calculator, we get that t=8.18544 yrs
so about 8.2yrs
68 meters is the correct answer
Answer: 5.88 feet tall
Step-by-step explanation:
Using this formula
Interest =principal×rate×time/100
Principal is the actual growth=3ft
Rate is the 32%
Time is 3yrs
Interest =3×32×3/100
Interest =2.88
To get the value for 3yrs,add the interest to the principal value
Exact value in 3yrs=
3+2.88
=5.88 feet tall
9 then 8. You add 4 to each number then subtract 1. 5+4=9 9-1=8
