Zack deposited $9,129 in a savings account earning 5% interest, compounded annually.

To the nearest cent, how much will he have in 5 years?

Use the formula B = p(1 + r)t, where B is the balance (final amount), p is the principal (starting amount), r is the interest rate expressed as a decimal, and t is the time in years.

Given Information:

Principle amount = P = $9,129

Interest rate = r = 4% = 0.05

Period in years = t = 5

Required Information:

Balance in 5 years = ?

Balance in 5 years = $11,651.17

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the formula given in the question,

Where B is the final amount, P is the initial amount, r is the interest rate and t is the number of years

Therefore, Zack will have $11,651.17 in 5 years by investing $9,129 in a savings account at 5% annual interest.

the largest number of the four options is 1.8 x 10-2

you have it in scientific notation.

1.80 x 10-6   = 0.00000180

1.80 x 10-4   = 0.000180 (bigger, or "less small", than the former one)

so

1.8 x 10-2       = 0.0180. as you see. the "less small", or the biggest one of them all.

as you have negative exponent, it means you are dividing 1.8 by 100 (i.e. moving the dot towards left, two times).

if you had positive exponent for the scientific notation, power of tenths, you would be multiplying times 100 (moving the dot towards right) as below:

1.8 x (10)2 = 180

so. if you have negative exponent in scientific notation, move the dot toward left. if it is positive, toward right as many times the exponent tells you.
