24468.32

24468.32

Step-by-step explanation

Use $A = P {(1 + r / n)}^{(n t)}$ with $P = 10, 568$ , $r = 5 %$ , $n = 2$ , $t = 17$ .

Compute period rate and exponent: $\frac{r}{n} = 0.025$ , $n t = 34$ , so the growth factor is $2.3153221327$ .

Multiply principal by growth factor: $10, 568$ × $2.3153221327$ = $24468.32$ .
