Answer 2

• $20911

Explanation:

Given

• Investment P₀ = $8300
• Interest rate r = 6.6%
• Compound = continuous
• Time t=14 years
• P = ?

Formula for continuous compound interest:

• P = P₀e ^rt, where e = 2.71828, constant used for continuous interest
• P = 8300*(2.71828)^(14*0.066)
• P = $20910.57 = $20911 rounded to the nearest dollar
