Respuesta :

For this problem we use the continuously compounded interest formula:

[tex]M=M_0e^{rt}[/tex]

where M_0 is the initial amount, r is the interest rate per year and t is the number of years.

Substituting M_0=$3500, r=0.06, and t=2 we get:

[tex]\begin{gathered} M=3500e^{0.06\cdot2}=3500e^{0.12} \\ M=3946.24 \end{gathered}[/tex]
