Answer:

Patricia's account balance after thirteen years is $867.16

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem is on simple interest calculation

we know that the formula for simple interest is given as

A= P(1+rt)

Given that

P= $612.40

r= 3.2%= 0.032

t= 13 years

Applying the formula we have

A= 612.40(1+0.032*13)

A= 612.40(1+0.416)

A= 612.40(1.416)

A= 867.1584

A= $867.16
