PLease help me!

Jacob has $7,777 in a savings account. The interest rate is 14%, compounded annually.

To the nearest cent, how much will he have in 2 years?

Use the formula B = p(1 + r)t, where B is the balance (final amount), p is the principal (starting amount), r is the interest rate expressed as a decimal, and t is the time in years.

Answer:

Total = Principal * (1 + rate )^ years

Total = 7,777 * 1.14^2

Total = 7,777 * 1.2996

Total = 10,106.99
