Roberta invested $600 into a mutual fund that paid 4% interest each year compounded annually. Write an exponential function of the form y=a(b)xย
to describe the value of the mutual fund then use that function to determine the value of the mutual fund in 15 years.

Look in your class notes and/or book for something called the ๐ฆ๐น๐ฑ๐ฐ๐ฏ๐ฆ๐ฏ๐ต๐ช๐ข๐ญ ๐จ๐ณ๐ฐ๐ธ๐ต๐ฉ ๐ง๐ฐ๐ณ๐ฎ๐ถ๐ญ๐ข. That is what you need to solve this problem. So it's a formula that relates the amount you're investing, how much interest is paid each year, and how many years will pass.ย ย
y = 600 (1 + 0.04) ^ x
then plug in 15 for x and evaluate on a calculator
