Rae deposit 6,000 into a savings account with an interest rate of 4% compounded monthly. how long will it take for the account to be worth 10,000?

it will take 13.3 years

Step-by-step explanation:

We would apply the formula for determining compound interest which is expressed as

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

Where

A = total amount in the account at the end of t years

r represents the interest rate.

n represents the periodic interval at which it was compounded.

P represents the principal or initial amount deposited

From the information given,

P = 6000

A = 10000

r = 4% = 4/100 = 0.04

n = 12 because it was compounded 12 times in a year.

Therefore,.

10000 = 6000(1 + 0.04/12)^12 × t

10000/6000(1 + 0.0033)^12t

1.67 = 1.0033^12t

Taking log to base 10 of both sides, it becomes

Log 1.67 = 12tLog 1.0033

0.223 = 12t × 0.0014

0.223 = 0.0168t

t = 0.223/0.0168

t = 13.3 years

step-by-step explanation:

-12 > a

step-by-step explanation:

-11 > 1 + a

subtract 1 from each side

-11-1 > 1-1+a

-12 > a
