Shota invests $2000 in a certificate of deposit that earns 2% in interest each year

write a function that gives the total value V(t), in dollars, of the investment t years from now

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the problem, we use the compound interest formula.

The formula that gives the total value V(t) of the investment after t years is:

where

is the initial value of the investment

r is the interest rate

t is the time (in years)

V(t) is the value of the investment after t years

In this problem:

is the initial investment

is the interest rate

Substituting, we find the final expression for this problem:

which can be reduced to

15

step-by-step explanation:

we are given the following expression and we are to solve it and find the product:

-13 × (-5)

solving the given expression in the standard order of solving a mathematical expression, beginning with the opening of brackets and then multiplying the terms and changing their signs.

-3 × -5 = 15 (answer is positive because when negative is multiplied with negative, it gives a positive answer)
