Answer: Choice B

The initial amount in the account.

==================================================

Reason:

x is the number of years

x = 0 is the starting point. Let's plug that in to find...


y = 982(1.07)^x\\\\y = 982(1.07)^0\\\\y = 982(1)\\\\y = 982\\\\

At the start, Sammy has $982 in the bank.

Side note: The 1.07 means the account is growing by 7% each year.
