Third answer


p\%=(p)/(100)\\\\4\%=(4)/(100)=0.04\\\\\text{Therefore the equation is:}\\\\\boxed{y=3000(1+0.04)^n}

Why?

4% per year.

100% + 4% = 1 + 0.04

after the first year


y=3000(1+0.04)

after the second year


y=3000(1+0.04)(1+0.04)=3000(1+0.04)^2

after the third year


y=3000(1+0.04)^2(1+0.04)=3000(1+0.04)^3

. . .

after the nth year


y=3000(1+0.04)^n
