C = 36.8 m
d = 1.3%
t = 2030 - 2005 = 25 years
N(25) = ?
Use the formula:
N(t) = C(2)^t/d
Substitute the values and solve.
Remember when punching in the fraction values as exponents, put brackets around them

2030 - 2005 = 25 years
A = 36.8 mil (0.013)^25

36.8 x 1.3% x 25 + 36.8
= 36.8 x 32.5% + 36.8
= 11.96 + 36.8
= 48.76 million
