Find equations
3) Find an equation for the amount of money in an account which has an annual interest rate of 6% compounded quarterly where you initially deposited $100.

Word problems
1) You put $150 into an account which gives you 2.5% interest compounded continuously. How much money will be in the account after 10 years?
