Edgar accumulated $4,000 in credit card debt. If the interest rate is 30% per year, and he does not make any payments for 2 years, how much will he owe (in dollars) on this debt in 2 years by each method of compounding? (Simplify your answers completely. Round your answers to the nearest cent.)

$7,459.12

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for continuous compounding is

A = Pe^(rt), where P is the original amount, A is the accumulated amount, r is the interest rate as a decimal fraction, and t is the number of years.  We want to know how much he will owe on this original $5,000 credit card debt after 2 years.

A = $5,000e^(0.20*2)

  = $7,459.12

option a is correct.

step-by-step explanation:

scale factor: it is used to find proportional measurements.

proportions means having the same ratio.

scale factor is the ratio of the model measurement to the actual measurement in a simplest form.

or we can say that the ratio of any two corresponding lengths in two similar geometric figures

if the scale factor is more than 1, then it is an enlargement,

if the scale factor less than 1, then it is a reduction.

given the two geometric figure:

by definition of proportions, we have
