Respuesta :

Answer:

[tex]\$84[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The simple interest formula is equal to

[tex]A=P(1+rt)[/tex]

where

A is the Final Investment Value

P is the Principal amount of money to be invested

r is the rate of interest  

t is Number of Time Periods

in this problem we have

[tex]t=1\ years\\ P=\$80\\ A=\$?\\r=5\%=5/100=0.05[/tex]

substitute in the formula

[tex]A=80(1+0.05*1)[/tex]

[tex]A=80(1.05)[/tex]

[tex]A=\$84[/tex]
