Answer: $6,800
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: The investment of $1,700 doubles in value every 10 years.
Here initial value A= 1700,
Multiplicative rate of change b=2
The exponential function for the given problem will be :-
[tex]y=Ab^x[/tex]
[tex]\\\Rightarrow y=1700(2)^t[/tex], where t is the time period of ever 10 years.
After 20 years (t=2) the amount will be = [tex]=1700(2)^2=\$\ 6,800[/tex]
