The summation represents the money in the account 10 years after the initial deposit is [tex]$\sum_{n=1}^{10} 316.5(1.055)^{n-1}$[/tex].
Compound interest
Let, Annually interest rate R = 5.5 %
Principal amount P = [tex]\$ 300$[/tex]
Deposit time n = 10.
The compound interest formula,
[tex]$A=P\left(1+\frac{R}{100}\right)^{n}$[/tex]
Substitute the value in above expression to estimate the compound interest 1 year.
[tex]${data-answer}amp;A=300\left(1+\frac{5.5}{100}\right)^{1} \\[/tex]
[tex]${data-answer}amp;A=300 \times(1.055)[/tex]
Similarly, to find the compound interest for 2 year.
A = 316.5 + 316.5(1.055)
From the given question this process repeat for 10 year.
[tex]$A=316.5+316.5(1.055)+316.5(1.055)^{2} \ldots$[/tex]
The above expression can be written in form of summation.
[tex]$\sum_{n=1}^{10} 316.5(1.055)^{n-1}$[/tex]
The summation represents the money in the account 10 years after the initial deposit is [tex]$\sum_{n=1}^{10} 316.5(1.055)^{n-1}$[/tex].
