The principal amount, $5500, earns 3.75% interest compounded continuously.
1 answer:
Answer:
a)
The function that represents the value of the account at any time, t
b)
The total amount accrued, principal plus interest, from compound interest on an original principal of $ 5,500.00 at a rate of 3.75% per year compounded continuously over 6 years is $ 6,887.77.
Step-by-step explanation:
a. Write the function that represents the value of the account at any time, t.
The function that represents the value of the account at any time, t
where
A represents the Future Value
P represents the Principle (Initial Value)
r represents the Interest rate
t represents the time
b) What will the value be after 6 years?
Given
The principal amount P = $5500
Annual Rate r = 3.75% = 3.75/100 = 0.0375
Time Period t = 6 years
To Determine:
The total amount A = ?
Using the formula
substituting the values
$
Therefore, the total amount accrued, principal plus interest, from compound interest on an original principal of $ 5,500.00 at a rate of 3.75% per year compounded continuously over 6 years is $ 6,887.77.

Step-by-step explanation:
The x-coordinate of the vertex is given by ...
x = -b/(2a)
for f(x) = ax^2 +bx +c.
We see that the vertex is at x = 1, and we are given a = -16. Then we can find "b" from ...
1 = -b/(2(-16))
32 = b
We know the y-intercept of the equation is 5 (the starting height), so the equation must be ...
h(t) = -16t^2 +32t +5 . . . . . matches the last choice
