Answer:

The total amount of money in Maria's account after 6 years is $8436

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

principal amount , P = $5,700

interest rate, r = 8 % = 0.08

time of investment, t = 6 years

The interest on the invested money after 6 years is given by;

I = Prt

I = $5,700 x 0.08 x 6

I = $2736

Total amount in Maria's account is given by;

A = P + I

A = $5,700 + $2736

A = $8436

Therefore, the total amount of money in Maria's account after 6 years is $8436
