$$208$$

Question 10

Jane is deciding between two investments. Investment 1 costs $$1,000$$ and generates $$3,000e$$^{0.02t}$$ per year for 5$ years. Investment 2 costs 4$$,000$$ and generates 4$$,$$000e^{0.015t}$$ per year for $$5$$ years. If the interest rate is $$5\%$$ compounded continuously, which investment is better?
