i.e for 1year (1-0.1125)19000=0.8875*19000

so for 14 years multiply 0.08875 14 times to 19000.

Answer: 3573.64

Step-by-step explanation:

Exponential Functions:

[tex]y = ab^{x}[/tex]

a=starting value = 19000

r=rate = 11.25%=0.1125

Exponential Decay:

b=1-r=1-0.1125=0.8875

Write Exponential Function:

[tex]y=19000(0.8875)^x[/tex]

Plug in time for x:

y=19000(0.8875)^14

y= 3573.6388855

Evaluate :

y=3573.64
