Find:

we have to answer part (a) and part(b) as asked in the question.

Explanation:

part(a):

Principal (P) = $450

interest rate R = 8%

Time(t) = 5 years

Therefore, Simple interest is

[tex]S.I.=\frac{P\times R\times t}{100}=\frac{450\times8\times5}{100}=180[/tex]

Therefore amount after 5 year = Principal + Simple interest

= $450 + $180

= $630

Ending Balance = $630

part(b):

Principal (P) = $450

interest rate R = 8% (Compounded annually)

interest in decimal r = 8/100 = 0.08 rate per year

Time(t) = 5 years

Amount after 5 year is

[tex]\begin{gathered} A=P(1+\frac{r}{n})^{nt} \\ A=450(1+\frac{0.08}{1})^{(1)(5)} \\ A=661.20 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Therefore, total amount after 5 year is $661.20.

Ending Balance = $661.20
