Compound Interest, Compound Continuously, Growth and Decay and Exponential Functions

Jasmine puts $4000 into an a savings account which offers 8% interest and compounds interest continuously for 3 years. Which equation would you use to see how much money Jasmine will have after 3 years?

• A=4000(1+.08)³

• A=4000e^(.08)(3)

• A=4000(1+3)^.08

• A=4000(1+.08/3)³⁽³⁾
