Growing linearly, the balance owed on your credit card doubles from $600 to $1200 in 6 months. If the balance were growing according to the exponential function f(x)=600(1+0.1220)^x where x represents the number of months, what would the balance be after 6 months? Round your answer to the nearest cent.

Respuesta :

Evaluate the given expression at x=6. This is, replace every x in the equation for 6 and solve:

[tex]\begin{gathered} f(6)=600(1+0.1220)^6 \\ f(6)=600(1.1220)^6 \\ f(6)=600\cdot(1.99506) \\ f(6)=1197.04 \end{gathered}[/tex]

The balance after 6 months is 1197.04.
