Answer 2

Answer:

B) $729.30

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount of money owed can be calculated using the formula

$A=P(1+r\%)^t$

where P=$600 is the principal

r%=5%, is the rate percent,  and

$t=4$ is the number of years.

We substitute the values into the formula to obtain;

$A=600(1+5\%)^4$

$A=600(1+0.05)^4$

$A=600(1.05)^4$

$A=729.30$ dollars
