Answer:

The amount of money after 8 years is $8448.69

Step-by-step explanation:

The rule of the compound interest is  

[tex]A=p(1+r)^{t}[/tex] , where

  • A is the new value
  • P is the original value
  • r is the rate in decimal
  • t is the time in years

∵ There is $7500 in an account

P = 7500  

∵ The account paying 1.5% compound interest

r = 1.5% = 1.5/100 = 0.015  

∵ The money will invest for 8 years

t = 8

→ Substitute all of these values in the rule above to find A  

∵  [tex]A=7500(1+0.015)^{8}[/tex]

→ Use your calculator to find the answer  

A = 8448.69

The amount of money after 8 years is $8448.69
