To find the amount in the account at year \( x = 22 \) with an initial deposit of \( \$3,900 \) and an annual interest rate of \( 7.77\% \) compounded annually, we can use the compound interest formula: \[ A = P(1 + r)^t \] where: - \( A \) is the amount of money accumulated after n years, including interest. - \( P \) is the principal amount (\$3,900). - \( r \) is the annual interest rate (decimal) (7.77% = 0.0777). - \( t \) is the time the money is invested for in years (22). (a) The expression for the amount at year \( x = 22 \) is: \[ \$3,900 \cdot (1 + 0.0777)^{22} \] Now, calculating the value: 1. Calculate \( (1 + 0.0777)^{22} \): \[ (1.0777)^{22} \approx 4.6884231 \] 2. Now multiply by the principal: \[ A \approx 3,900 \cdot 4.6884231 \approx 18,284.0261 \] Rounding to the nearest 0.01 dollars, the value in year \( x = 22 \) would be: \[ \$ 18,284.03 \] So, enter the calculations accordingly and the final rounded value is \$ \( 18,284.03 \).
