a. $3431.45
b. $1596.55
c. $1549.40
d. $1334.44

Respuesta :

A=p (1+I/k)^kn
A=1,220×(1+0.09÷12)^(12×3)
A=1,596.55

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Alright, lets get started.

Principal amount is given as [tex]P=1220[/tex]

Time is given as [tex]t = 3[/tex]

compounded monthly means [tex]n = 12[/tex]

rate of interest [tex]r = 9[/tex]

The formula for final amount is:

[tex]A = P(1+\frac{r}{n})^{nt}[/tex]

[tex]A = 1220 (1+\frac{9}{100*12}) ^{12*3}[/tex]

[tex]A = 1220*1.3086[/tex]

[tex]A = 1596.55[/tex]

Hence the answer is $ 1596.55   :    Answer
