Step-by-step explanation:

Your formula is A=Pe^rt

A is what you're looking for, the amount/account balance in $

P is the principal aka what you put into the account: $6,154

e is the mathematical constant. You'd plug that into your calculator.

r is the rate, you'd put it into the equation as a decimal: 8%=.08

t is the time in years: 10

A = 6154e^.08x10 you can plug this into your calculator

A = $13,695.98
