The amount of the money borrowed is 864.941
So the amount of money over time can be given with an exponential function y=a(b)^x or more specifically y=a(1+r)^x where r is the growth rate (interest rate)
So the equation can be written as
m=(1.04)^t
Where m represents the amount of money over time, P represents the principal amount, and t represents time in years. Since we're given the amount of interest paid and not the total amount which includes the initial amount borrowed you have to subtract P from the equation. This will give us the equation that we'll use to find the initial amount
[tex]I=P(1.04)^t-P[/tex] where I represent the interest paid.
plug the values into the equation
[tex]108=P(1.04)^3-P\\P=864.941[/tex]
Therefore the amount of the money borrowed is 864.941.
