Question
Answer:
Answer:  The initial amount in the account = $3600Step-by-step explanation:Since we have given that The amount of money in a savings account after t years is represented by the function [tex]f(t)=3600(1.035)^t[/tex]As we know the formula "Compound Interest" :[tex]Amount=P(1+\frac{r}{100})^t\\\\Here,\\\\\text{ P denotes principal}\\\\\text{ R denotes Rate of interest}\\\\\text{ T denotes time}[/tex]So, According to our question,Rate of interest = 0.35 = 35%So, equate the both the equations , we get thatHence, The initial amount in the account = $3600
