Answer:

B

Explanation:

The compound interest formula is
A = P (1+r/n)^nt where:

  • P is the starting amount called the principle
  • r is the rat written as a decimal
  • n is the number of times compounded in a year
  • t is the number of years

Substitute a value into each variable to solve.

  • P = $147 since 10% of 1,470 is being invested which makes P = 0.10(1470) = 147.
  • The rate is 3.5% or r = 0.035.
  • n = 12 because it is compounded monthly meaning 12 times a year.
  • t = 25 since it will earn for 25 years.


A = P (1+r/n)^(nt)\\A = 147(1 + (0.035)/(12))^(12*25)\\A = 147 ( 1 + 0.002916)^(300)\\A = 147(1.002916)^(300)\\A = 352.19

Repeat this process for each formula.
