ANSWER:

1 year: $6105

2 year: $6776.55

STEP-BY-STEP EXPLANATION:

The formula for annual compound interest, including principal sum, is:

[tex]A=P\cdot\mleft(1+\frac{r}{n}\mright)^{nt}[/tex]

A = the future value of the investment/loan, including interest

P = the principal investment amount (the initial deposit or loan amount) = $5500

r = the annual interest rate (decimal) = 11% = 11/100 = 0.11

n = the number of times that interest is compounded per year = 1

t = the number of years the money is invested or borrowed for = 1 and 2

We replace in each case and we get the following:

[tex]\begin{gathered} A_1=5500\cdot\mleft(1+\frac{0.11}{1}\mright)^{1\cdot1}=6105 \\ A_2=5500\cdot\mleft(1+\frac{0.11}{1}\mright)^{2\cdot1}=6776.55 \end{gathered}[/tex]
