32959.74

Step-by-step explanation

Use $A = P {(1 + r / n)}^{(n t)}$ with $P = 17, 650$ , $r = 7 %$ , $n = 4$ , $t = 9$ .

Compute period rate and exponent: $\frac{r}{n} = 0.0175$ , $n t = 36$ , so the growth factor is $1.867407266$ .

Multiply principal by growth factor: $17, 650$ × $1.867407266$ = $32959.74$ .
