Answer:
$1,179
Step-by-step explanation:
Lets use the compound interest formula provided to solve this:

<em>P = initial balance</em>
<em>r = interest rate (decimal)</em>
<em>n = number of times compounded annually</em>
<em>t = time</em>
<em />
First, lets change 2.6% into a decimal:
2.6% ->
-> 0.026
Since the interest is compounded quarterly, we will use 4 for n. Lets plug in the values now:


The account balance after 10 years will be $1,179
1 1/3 - 5/6
Find common demoninator which is 6.
Then do 2*1=2.
Now you got 2/6 - 5/6 = -3/6
Simplify:
-3/6=-1/2
Then combined answers.
1 - 1/2 = 1/2
Final answer is 1/2
