$53,000 is placed in an investment account that grows at a fixed rate of 2% (compound growth) per year. how much is in the account after four years? round your answer to the nearest whole number.

$57,369

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that an amount of $53,000 is placed in an investment account that grows at a fixed rate of 2% (compound growth) per year. We are asked to find the amount in the account after 4 years.

To solve our given problem we will use compound interest formula.\

, where,

A = Final amount after t years,

P = Principal amount,

r = Annual interest rate in decimal form,

n = Number of times interest is compounded per year,

t = Time in years.

Let us convert our given rate in decimal form.

Upon substituting our given values in compound interest formula we will get,

Therefore, an amount of $57,369 will be in the account after 4 years.

answer: a. 13/44

step-by-step explanation: judging by the information given to us, we are looking for experimental probability. we can see that 13 males have chosen chocolate ice cream. there are 44 ice creams in total (remember that the total is always the denominator). so our answer is 13/44.
