To determine the amount of money Teresa will have in her bank account after 6 months, we need to use the given expression: \( 1000 + 250x \).

Here, \( x \) represents the number of months. We need to evaluate the expression for \( x = 6 \).

### Step-by-step solution:

1. Substitute \( x = 6 \) into the expression \( 1000 + 250x \):
[tex]\[ 1000 + 250 \times 6 \][/tex]

2. Calculate the product:
[tex]\[ 250 \times 6 = 1500 \][/tex]

3. Add the result to 1000:
[tex]\[ 1000 + 1500 = 2500 \][/tex]

So, the amount of money Teresa will have in her account after 6 months is [tex]\( 2500 \)[/tex] dollars.
