To calculate the future value of Tyler's mom's investment after 30 years with a simple interest rate of 4%, we can use the formula:
Future Value = Present Value + (Present Value * Interest Rate * Time)
= $1000 + ($1000 * 0.04 * 30)
= $1000 + ($1000 * 0.04 * 30)
= $1000 + ($1200)
= $2200
Therefore, Tyler's mom's investment would be worth $2200 after 30 years in Bank A.
