Answer:

  (d)  $850.45

Step-by-step explanation:

The balance in account I is given by ...

  A = P(1 +rt) . . . . principal P invested at annual rate r for t years

  A = 350(1 +0.045×3) = 397.25

__

The balance in account II is given by ...

  A = P(1 +r)^t

  A = 400(1 +0.0425)^3 ≈ 453.20

__

The total amount in the two accounts is

  $397.25 +453.20 = $850.45
