At the end of 10 years, how much money will be in the savings account?” For this answer I used the geometric sequence: P is the $500 deposited. R is the 5% annual interest. N is the 10 years. A is the amount of money that has been accumulating over the past N years. A=P (1+R) N. The amount accrued would be $814.45, hence, 500(1+0.05)10=814.45 (Bluman, 2005).…
