Answer: $ 2388.10

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Principal value : P= $2,000

annual rate : r= 3% = 0.03

Time : t= 6 years

Formula to calculate the accumulated amount if compounded continuously :-

$A=P(1+r)^t$

$A=2000(1+0.03)^6\\\\=2000(1.03)^6\\\\=2000(1.1940523)\\\\=2388.10$

Hence, Money in Katie's account after 6 years = $ 2388.10
