Explanation Given: The initial amount invested is $15,000. Additional investments are made at the rate of $2,000 per year. After 10 years the amount becomes $50,000. Formula used: If money is continuously deposited into the account at the rate of $ m per year, then A satisfies the equation d A d t − r A = m ; where A ( 0 ) = P , d A d t is the rate of change of the amount A , rA is the rate of growth from continuous compounding and m is the rate of deposit. Integrating factor: The integrating factor of a function f ( x ) is given by I ( x ) = e ∫ f ( x ) d x . Calculation: Given that the initial amount invested is $15,000. Additional investments are made at the rate of $2,000 per year. After 10 years the amount becomes $50,000. Then, substitute m = 2 , 000 and P = 15 , 000 in the above equation. Therefore, the amount A at any time t must satisfy d A d t − r A = 2 , 000 ; A ( 0 ) = 15 , 000 . Now find the integrating factor. I ( t ) = e ∫ − r d t = e − r t Multiply both sides of the equation by the integrating factor. e − r t d A d t − r e − r t A = 2 , 000 e − r t ( A e − r t ) ′ = 2 , 000 e − r t [ ∵ ( x y ) ′ = x y ′ + x ′ y ] Integrating on both sides, ∫ ( A e − r t ) ′ d t = ∫ 2 , 000 e − r t d t A e − r t = 2 , 000 ( e − r t − r ) + C A e − r t = − 2 , 000 r e − r t + C A = − 1 , 000 r + C e r t The initial condition is A ( 0 ) = 15 , 000
