Answer: =

Write the expressions backward from month 12 to month 1 to get this series:

50 + 50(1.003) + 50(1.003)2 + ... + 50(1.003)11

Convert the series to sigma notation, and find the sum of the 12 terms in the series:

11

S12 50(1.003)

ko

50(1 - 1.00312)

1 - 1.003

610

Esther will have about $610 in her savings account after a year. She would have deposited $600 over 12 months, so she

will have earned $10 in interest.
