Answer:

The amount that will be in the account will be $(2900 +261x)

Explanation:

We know that the amount of money that will be in the account will be a sum of the initial principal ($2900) and the interest that is accrued after x years.

Since we already know the principal, we will have to calculate the interest that is accrued after x years.

we can use the formula:

Interest = (principal X rate X time)/ 100

Interest =
(2900 * 9 * x)/100=261x

Therefore the amount that will be in the account will be $(2900 +261x)
