C. $2904.59

Step-by-step explanation:

Compounded continually means that the principal amount is constantly earning interest and the interest keeps earning on the interest earned.

The formula to apply is

$A=Pe^{rt}$

where A is the amount, P is the principal, r is rate of interest, t is time in years and e is the mathematical constant

Taking

e=2.7183, P=$2500, r=3% and t=5 years

$A=Pe^{rt} \\\\\\A=2500*2.7183^{0.03*5} \\\\\\A=2500*1.1618\\\\\\A=2904.59\\\\A=2904.59$

$\bf ~~~~~~ \textit{Continuously Compounding Interest Earned Amount} \\\\ A=Pe^{rt}\qquad \begin{cases} A=\textit{accumulated amount}\\ P=\textit{original amount deposited}\dotfill & \$2500\\ r=rate\to 3\%\to \frac{3}{100}\dotfill &0.03\\ t=years\dotfill &5 \end{cases} \\\\\\ A=2500e^{0.03\cdot 5}\implies A=2500e^{0.15}\implies A\approx 2904.59$
