The value of her investment after 8 years is $8,293.81.

<h3>What do interest rates mean?</h3>

An interest rate tells you how high the cost of borrowing is, or high the rewards are for saving.

Given:

P= $5600

r= 5.4%

t= 8 years

Then solve the equation for A

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

A = 5,400.00 $(1 + 0.054/4)^{4/8}$

A = 5,400.00 $(1 + 0.0135)^{32}$

A = $8,293.81

Hence, the value will be $8,293.81.
