Q. P(t)=1,800(1.004)t P(t)=1,800(1.004)^{t} \newlineThe function models P P , the amount of money, in dollars, in Yara's savings account t t years after she opened the account with an initial deposit of $1,800 \$ 1,800 . How much money is in Yara's account 55 years after her initial deposit if she makes no deposits or withdraws in that time?\newlineChoose 11 answer:\newline(A) $1,836.29 \$ 1,836.29 \newline(B) $1,873.31 \$ 1,873.31 \newline(C) $2,189.98 \$ 2,189.98 \newline(D) $9,036 \$ 9,036
  1. Identify function and value: Identify the given function and the value to be substituted.\newlineThe function given is P(t)=1,800(1.004)t P(t) = 1,800(1.004)^t , which models the amount of money in Yara's savings account after t t years. We need to find the amount of money after 5 5 years, so we will substitute t t with 5 5 .
  2. Substitute tt with 55: Substitute tt with 55 in the function to calculate the amount of money after 55 years.\newlineP(5)=1,800(1.004)5P(5) = 1,800(1.004)^5
  3. Calculate (1.004)5(1.004)^5: Calculate the value of (1.004)5(1.004)^5.\newline(1.004)5≈1.02020201(1.004)^5 \approx 1.02020201 (using a calculator for precision)
  4. Multiply by initial deposit: Multiply the initial deposit by the calculated value to find the total amount in the account after 55 years.\newlineP(55) = 1,800×1.020202011,800 \times 1.02020201\newlineP(55) ≈1,836.36362\approx 1,836.36362
  5. Round to two decimal places: Round the result to two decimal places, as we are dealing with currency.\newlineP(5)≈$(1,836.36)P(5) \approx \$(1,836.36)

Question
Jill bought a used motorcycle from a seller online for $1,200. The seller will charge her $5 a day to store the motorcycle at his house until she is able to pick it up. You can use a function to describe the total amount of money Jill will owe the seller if she waits xx days to pick up the motorcycle.\newlineWrite an equation for the function. If it is linear, write it in the form g(x)=mx+bg(x) = mx + b. If it is exponential, write it in the form g(x)=a(b)xg(x) = a(b)^x.\newlineg(x)=‾g(x) = \underline{\hspace{3em}}
