Respuesta :

[tex]i=(\frac{P2}{P1})^{\frac{1}{n}}-1[/tex]

You use the given formula with data:

P1: $320,000

P2: $560,000

n: 14 years

You calculare the rate i:

[tex]\begin{gathered} i=(\frac{560000}{320000})^{\frac{1}{14}}-1 \\ \\ i=1.75^{\frac{1}{14}}-1 \\ \\ i=1.04078-1 \\ \\ i=0.04078 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Turn into percent by multiplying by 100:

[tex]i=0.04078\cdot100=4.078[/tex]

Then, the growth rate as a percentage for that 14 years period is 4.078%
