Answer:

   $6484.80

Step-by-step explanation:

Account I:

The balance in the account after 2 years will be ...

  A = P(1 +rt)

  A = $3000(1 +0.04(2)) = $3240

__

Account II:

The balance in the account after 2 years will be ...

  A = P(1 +r)^t

  A = $3000(1 +0.04)^2 = $3244.80

__

The sum of the two balances after 2 years is ...

  $3240 +3244.80 = $6484.80
