Respuesta :
300(1+0.045)^n = 756
1.045^n = 756/300= 2.52
n = 21 year
Your age = 9+21 = 30
1.045^n = 756/300= 2.52
n = 21 year
Your age = 9+21 = 30
Answer:
30 years
Step-by-step explanation:
On your ninth birthday, you received $300 which you invested at 4.5 percent interest, compounded annually.
Principal amount is $300
rate of interest is 4.5%
your investment is now worth $756. So amount after t year is $756
We use compound interest formula
[tex]A=P(1+r)^t[/tex]
A is the final amount
P is principal amount
r is the rate of interest 0.045
t is the number of years
Plug in the values in the formula
[tex]756=300(1+0.045)^t[/tex]
Divide both sides by 300
[tex]\frac{756}{300}=1. 045^t[/tex]
Take ln on both sides
[tex]ln\frac{756}{300}=t ln(1. 045)[/tex]
Divide both sides by ln(0.045)
t= 20.99= 21 years
9 years + 21 years = 30 years
