Compute the amount George would withdraw assuming the investment earns simple interest. (Round answers to 0 decimal places, e. g. 458,581.)

the first part of the question is missing, so I looked for a similar one:

George Jackson invests $40,500 at 10% annual interest, leaving the money invested without withdrawing any of the interest for 10 years. At the end of the 10 years, Alan withdraws the accumulated amount of money.

total amount of money in the account earning simple interest = principal x interest rate x time = $40,500 + ($40,500 x 10% x 10) = $81,000

if the interest was compounded annually, then the total amount would be = $40,500 x (1 + 10%)¹⁰ = $105,046.57

if the interest was compounded semiannually, then the total amount would be = $40,500 x (1 + 5%)²⁰ = $107,458.56

a progressive tax is a tax that imposes a lower tax rate on low-income earners compared to those with a higher income, making it based on the taxpayer's ability to pay. that means it takes a bigger percentage from high income earners than it does from low income people.
