Marcia has a simple interest savings account that she initially deposited $1,300. What is the balance in her account after 8 years if the account paid an annual interest rate of 4.6% and the interest was deposited into the account annually. Enter the dollar sign, followed by the dollar amount including any cents. No space between the dollar sign and the number. Do not use a comma. Example: $368.42 The simple interest balance function can be written in it's most general form: B left parenthesis t right parenthesis space equals space P space plus space P times r over n times t where P is the initial principal, r is the annual interest rate, n is the number of time units per year (days n=365, months n=12, years n=1) that the interest is deposited into the account, and t is the total number of time units (days, months, years)
