Tasha invests $5,000 at 6% annual interest and an additional $5,000 at 8% annual interest. Thomas invests $10,000 at 7% annual interest. Which statement accurately compares Tasha’s and Thomas’s investments if interest is compounded annually?Compound interest formula: t = years since initial depositn = number of times compounded per yearr = annual interest rate (as a decimal)P = initial (principal) investmentV(t) = value of investment after t years

Question illustration
A
Each person will have exactly the same amount over time because each invested $10,000 at an average interest rate of 7%.
B
Tasha’s investment will yield more over many years because the amount invested at 8% causes the overall total to increase faster.
C
Thomas’s investment will yield more from the start because he has more money invested at the average percentage rate.
D
Tasha’s investment will yield more at first because she invested some at a higher rate, but Thomas’s investment will yield more over the long run.
