Answer:


\$4,081.54

Explanation:

we know that

The compound interest formula is equal to


A=P(1+(r)/(n))^(nt)

where

A is the Final Investment Value

P is the Principal amount of money to be invested

r is the rate of interest in decimal

t is Number of Time Periods

n is the number of times interest is compounded per year

in this problem we have


t=10\ years\\ P=\$2,250\\ r=0.06\\n=4

substitute in the formula above


A=\$2,250(1+(0.06)/(4))^(4*10)=\$4,081.54
