Michael arthur deported $2,900 in a new regular savings account that earns 5.5 percent interest compounded semiannually he made no other deposits or withdrawals a what is the amount in the account at the end of 1 year b what is the compound interest

The amount in the account is $3062.4 (Approx) and compound interest is $162.4 .

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula for compounded semiannually

Where P is the principle , r is the rate in decimal form and t is the time.

As given

Michael arthur deported $2,900 in a new regular savings account that earns 5.5 percent interest .

Here

Principle =  $2,900

5.5% is written in the decimal form.

= 0.055

Time = 1 year

Put in the formula

Amount = $ 3062.4 (Approx)

Thus the amount after 1 years is $3062.4 (Approx) .

Now find out the compound interest .

Amount = Principle + Compound interest

Here

Amount = $ 3062.4  

Principle = $2,900

Put in the above

$3062.4   = $2,900 + Compound interest

Compound interest = $3062.4 -  $2,900

Compound interest = $162.4

you divide the cost ($15) by the quantity (6) to get your questions answer. the yo-yo costs $2.50. hope this : )!
