Answer:

$216435

Explanation:

Given : Suppose homes in a big city increase in value 13% every year.

To Find: How much will a home that cost $150,000 be worth 3 years later?

Solution:

Principal = $150000

Rate = 13% =0.13

Time = 3 years

Formula :
A=P(1+r)^t

Now substitute the values in the formula


A=150000(1+0.13)^3


A=216434.55

So, The cost of home after 3 years will be $216435

Hence Option B is true
