You deposit $300 into a savings account that is compounded annually. The function g(x) = 300(1.04)x can be used to find the amount of money in the savings account after x years. What is the constant percent rate of change?

Respuesta :

Answer:

This is a simple interest, as the amount earned each year is constant

Step-by-step explanation:

Using compound interest, it is found that the constant percent rate of change is of 4%.

--------------------

The formula for an amount of money invested into compound interest is given by:

[tex]A(t) = A(0)(1+r)^t[/tex]

In which:

  • A(t) is the amount after t years.
  • A(0) is the initial amount.
  • r is the constant percent rate of change.
  • t is the time.

--------------------

The function is:

[tex]g(x) = 300(1.04)^x[/tex]

Thus, for the constant percent rate of change:

[tex]1 + r = 1.04[/tex]

[tex]r = 1.04 - 1 = 0.04[/tex]

[tex]0.04 \times 100\% = 4\%[/tex]

The constant percent rate of change is of 4%.
