We can use the formula for compound interest:
A = P(1 + r/n)^(nt)
where:
A = the final amount
P = the initial deposit
r = the annual interest rate (as a decimal)
n = the number of times the interest is compounded per year
t = the number of years
In this case, we have:
P = $700 (the initial deposit)
r = 9% = 0.09 (the annual interest rate)
n = 1 (the interest is compounded once a year)
t = 14 (the number of years, since the account is opened on the day the daughter is born and we need to find the balance on her 14th birthday)
First, let's calculate the total amount of deposits that Gilberto will make over the years:
Total deposits = $700 + $700 × 13 = $10,100
Now, let's calculate the final amount:
A = $700 (1 + 0.09/1)^(1×14) + $10,100
A = $700 × 2.7938 + $10,100
A = $12,556.66
Therefore, there will be $12,556.66 in the account at the end of the day on her 14th birthday.
Gilberto opened a savings account for his daughter and deposited $700 on the day she was born. Each year on her birthday, he deposited another $700. If the account pays 9% interest, compounded annually, how much is in the account at the end of the day on her 14th birthday?

amount = 700(1.09^15 - 1)/.09
= 20,552.64
Haven't got the foggiest idea what the bot is doing with
" Total deposits = $700 + $700 × 13 = $10,100 "
= 20,552.64

I apologize for the error. The formula you used is the correct formula for compound interest with regular deposits.
Using that formula, we can calculate the final amount as:
amount = 700(1.09^14 - 1)/0.09 + 700(1.09^13 - 1)/0.09 + 700(1.09^12 - 1)/0.09 + ... + 700(1.09 - 1)/0.09
This formula sums up the value of all the deposits, with each deposit accruing compound interest over the relevant number of years.
Simplifying this expression, we get:
amount = 700 × ((1.09^14 - 1)/0.09)
amount += 700 × ((1.09^13 - 1)/0.09)
amount += 700 × ((1.09^12 - 1)/0.09)
...
amount += 700 × ((1.09 - 1)/0.09)
Which gives us:
amount = 700 × ((1.09^14 - 1)/0.09 + (1.09^13 - 1)/0.09 + ... + (1.09 - 1)/0.09)
Simplifying further using the formula for the sum of a geometric series, we get:
amount = 700 × ((1.09^14 - 1)/0.09) × ((1 - 1/1.09) / (1 - (1/1.09)^14))
amount = $20,552.64
Therefore, the final balance in the account at the end of the day on the daughter's 14th birthday will be $20,552.64. I apologize for any confusion caused by my previous response.
