The earnings by a stock invested at r% for n years is obtained by the formular A = P(1 + r)^n; where P is the initial investment = 1,500; r is the interest rate = 10% and n is the numberof years of the investment. Here A = 1,500(1 + 0.1)^18 = 1,500(1.1)^18 = 8,339.88.Hope this helps. Let me know if you need additional help!
P=1500
n=18

A=1500(1.10)^18
A=8399.88

answer is C
