Answer 1

14512.15

Explanation:

Answer 2

`A=\$14,555.17`

Explanation:

we know that

The compound interest formula is equal to

`A=P(1+(r)/(n))^(nt)`

where

A is the Final Investment Value

P is the Principal amount of money to be invested

r is the rate of interest in decimal

t is Number of Time Periods

n is the number of times interest is compounded per year

in this problem we have

`t=10\ years\\ P=\$8,000\\ r=6\%=6/100=0.06\\n=12`

substitute in the formula above

`A=8,000(1+(0.06)/(12))^(12*10) \\A=8,000(1.005)^(120)\\A=\$14,555.17`
