Could someone me bc idkk how this works

the answer is 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because the interest rate is if he had $1 in the account for a year you would add the 18% or in decimel form 0.0018 do that to the 15th to get 15 years and multiply that by 5000 because that was the ammount of money he put in so 5000(1*0.0018)15 or 0.0018^15*5000
