You are given the formula AND all the data to sub into that formula.

Do you have a scientific calculator??
Took me about 9 seconds to finish the calculations.
Give it a try.
No, I do not, unfortunately. Does the 0.03 go into the r?
amount = 1000 e^(.03(10))
= 1000 e^.3
= 1000 (1.349858..)

= $1349.86

How does your teacher expect you to do these calculations?
With a calculator, I just can't afford one. Thank you very much I appreciate the help!
