Answer:

Toni invested in pounds= $1350

rate of compound interest=4%

Step-by-step explanation:

Toni invests money into an account which pays a fixed rate of compound interest each year. The total value, £V, of her investment after t years is given by the formula:

[tex]V = 1350(1.04)^t[/tex]

Given equation is in the form of [tex]A=P(1+r)^t[/tex]

where P is the amount invested

'r' is the rate of interest

t is the time taken

[tex]V = 1350(1.04)^t[/tex]

P= 1350 is the initial amount invested

1+r= 1.04 (subtract 1 from both sides)

[tex]r=0.04[/tex] multiply it by 100 to get percentage

r= 4%
