Answer:

$ 2062.97 ( approx )

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, the amount formula for continuous compounding,

[tex]A=Pe^{rt}[/tex]

Where, P is the principal amount,

r is the rate per period,

t is the number of years,

e is euclid number,

Here,

P = $ 2000,

r = 3.1% = 0.031,

t = 1 year,

Hence, the balance would be,

[tex]A=2000 e^{0.031\times 1}[/tex]

[tex] = 2000 e^{0.031}[/tex]

[tex]=\$ 2062.97100777[/tex]

[tex]\approx \$ 2062.97[/tex]
