Question
Answer:
Answer:[tex]\$30,248.35[/tex] Step-by-step explanation:we know that
The formula to calculate continuously compounded interest is equal to
[tex]A=P(e)^{rt}[/tex] where A is the Final Amount due P is the amount of money borrowedr is the rate of interest in decimal t is Number of Time Periods e is the mathematical constant number
we have [tex]t=7\ years\\ P=\$8,000\\ r=19\%=19/100=0.19[/tex] substitute in the formula above [tex]A=8,000(e)^{0.19*7}[/tex] [tex]A=8,000(e)^{1.33}[/tex] [tex]A=\$30,248.35[/tex]
