Answer:

$54,742.76

Explanation:

The equation for an exponential function is
f(x)=ab^x\\, where
a is the starting value, which is 40,000. This value increases by 4%, so
b is 1.04. Finally,
x is the term that the value is increasing for, which in this case is 8.

So, the equation is
f(x)=40000*1.04^8

**
f(x) can be replaced with
y
