9.

You have a home worth $270,000 whose value is compounding continuously at a rate of 2% a year. Which of the following equations describe the value of the house after t years?

a)

A(t)=27000e2tA\left(t\right)=27000e^{2t}  

b)

A(t)=27000e0.02tA\left(t\right)=27000e^{0.02t}

b)

y=738e1.0345ty=738e^{1.0345t}  

c)

y=(1+0.345)ty=\left(1+0.345\right)^t  

d)

y=(e+0.345)ty=\left(e+0.345\right)^t  

11.
