Answer: $4, 770

Aiden opens a savings account with $4500 at interest of 3%

t = 2 years

Using, simple interest formula


\begin{gathered} I\text{ = }\frac{P\text{ x R x T}}{100} \\ I\text{ = }\frac{4500\text{ x 3 x 2}}{100} \\ I\text{ = }\frac{4500\text{ x 6}}{100} \\ I\text{ = }(27000)/(100) \\ I\text{ = \$270} \end{gathered}

Balance = Principal + interest

Balance = 4500 + 270

Balance = $4,770

At the end of the second year, Aiden makes a deposit of $300

The total amount of money that will be in her account

Balance = 4770 + 300

Balance = $5, 070
