Edgar accumulated $11,000 in credit card debt. If the interest rate is 30% per year and he does not make any payments for 3 years, how much will he owe on this debt in 3 years by compounding continuously?

= 1.38778e-141 which makes interest a large amount 139 million and 108 hundred thousand and fourhundred and four.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation is A= P 1+ r/n ^nt

So we input for A = (11000) x 1.30/11000 ^ 36 x 3

= 1.38778e-141 which makes interest a large amount 139 million and 108 hundred thousand and fourhundred and four.

The formula used in the compound interest calculator is A = P(1+r/n)(nt)

A = the future value of the investment

P = the principal investment amount

r = the interest rate (decimal)

n = the number of times that interest is compounded per period

t = the number of periods the money is invested for

$27,055.63

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for continuously compounded interest is:

where

F = future value

P = current principal value

r = annual interest rate as a decimal

t = time in years

In this problem, we are looking for F. We are given

P = $11,00

r = 30% = 0.3

t = 3

We use the formula to find F.

In 3 years, he will owe $27,055.63
