Dirk opened up a savings account with $600. at a yearly interest rate of 5 percent that is compounded monthly, how much interest will dirk earn in six months.

Hence final answer is $15.17

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Dirk opened up a savings account with $600.

So P=$600

"At a yearly interest rate of 5 percent"

Means r=5% = 0.05

"compounded monthly" means n=12

i= monthly rate of interest = r/n=0.05/12

"how much interest will Dirk earn in six months." means find Interest when time is 6 months

Plug these values into compound interest formula:

A=615.169372966

which is approx

A=615.17

Now interest earned will be difference of A and P

Interest =A-P=615.17-600=$15.17

Hence final answer is $15.17

answer: approximately 206 bones

i hope this u out a branlist and a would be greatly appreciated :

this is the formula: v = the value of investment at the end of the time period

p = the principal amount (the initial amount invested)

r = the annual interest rate

n = the annual frequency of compounding (how many times a year interest is added)

t = the number of years the money is invested

^ means raise to the power of
