A person places $5540 in an investment account earning an annual rate of 2.5%,
compounded continuously. Using the formula V = Pent, where V is the value of the
account in t years, P is the principal initially invested, e is the base of a natural
logarithm, and ris the rate of interest, determine the amount of money, to the
nearest cent, in the account after 20 years.

1- what do you think the product of a nonzero rational number and an irrational number is? is it rational or irrational? make use of variables, the closure property of integers, and possibly a proof by contradiction to prove your hypothesis.2- why do we have to specify that the rational number must be nonzero when we determine what the product of a nonzero rational number and an irrational number is? if the rational number were 0, would it give us the same result we found in the first question?
