Answer:

Capital: 2 400

Tasa: 5% = 5/100 = 1/20

Tiempo: 4 años

A) Interés = capital*tasa*tiempo

Interés = 2400*(1/20)*4

Interés = 480 soles

B) Interés = Capital*((1 + tasa)^tiempo+1)

Interés = 2400*((1 + 1/20)^4 + 1)

Interés = 2400*((21/20)^4 + 1)

Interés = 2400*(194 481/160 000 + 1)

Interés = 2400*(354 481/160 000)

Interés = 5 317,215Explanation:
