    I believe it's 30,180,000

    First do 4% - > 0.04x15=0.6

    0.6+100=100.6x300,000

    But then again I'm not too sure so double check

    Answer: the approximate value of the house in 15 years is 540283

    Step-by-step explanation:

    If the value of the house rises 4% each year, then the growth rate is exponential. We would apply the formula for exponential growth which is expressed as

    A = P (1 + r) ^t

    Where

    A represents the value of the house after t years.

    t represents the number of years.

    P represents the initial value of the house.

    r represents rate of growth.

    From the information given,

    P = $300,000

    r = 4% = 4/100 = 0.04,

    t = 15 years

    Therefore

    A = 300000 (1 + 0.04) ^15

    A = 300000 (1.04) ^15

    A = 540283 to the nearest whole number
