Answer: $1329.28

Explanation:

Given : The principal amount :
P=\$900

Time period :
t=13\text{ years}

Rate of interest :
r=0.03

The formula to find the compound amount ( if compounded continuously ) is given by :-


A=Pe^(rt)

i.e.
A=(900)e^(0.03*13)=900(1.47698079388)


=1329.28271449\approx1329.28

Hence, the compound amount after 13 years will be $1329.28.
