Answer: 6.4
Step-by-step explanation:
If f(t) = P[tex]e^{rt}[/tex] Where r= rate and t= time
Given: P=5, r= 0.05
We are required to determine f(5) to the nearest tenth
By comparing f(t) and f(5), it implies we take out t=5
Therefore:
f(t) = P [tex]e^{rt}[/tex] = 5*[tex]e^{0.05*5}[/tex]
=6.42012708344
=6.4 ( to the nearest tenth)
Note: e is the exponential growth symbol
