Answer

$16,705.97

Step-by-step explanation:

The modeled equation is given as

y = P(1.01)^x

Where x = number in years, P = original amount

let x = 74 years and P = $8,000

To find y, substitute the above values into the above function

y = 8000(1.01)^74

y = 8000 x 2.0882

y = $16,705.97

The amount in the account if he deposited $8000 after 74 years is $16, 705.97
