Assuming this is actually supposed to be written as 1500*(1.074)^t, then this equation follows the standard growth form y = A(1+r)^t where A represents the initial amount, r represents the rate as a decimal, and t represents time. This means that 1500 (A) would be the initial amount, and if you subtract 1 from what's inside the paratheses, you will get the r rate as a decimal. To get this as a percent, simply multiply it by 100, so you will get 7.4% as your growth rate.

To find what the answer would be when t = 5, just plug in 5 for the value of t in the equation.

f(5) = 1500*(1.074^5)

f(5) = 1500*(1.42896)

f(5) = 2143.45
