compounded continuously. Assuming no deposits or withdrawals are
made, how long would it take, to the nearest tenth of a year, for the
value of the account to reach $610?

I got it right

Answer 2

16.3

Explanation:

Continuously compounding interest formula:

pe^(r*t)

we know that

440e^(.02x)=610

Sovle for x

e^.02x=1.38

.02x=ln1.38

.02x=.3267

x=16.3
