Answer: $1725

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The total amount in an account eating simple interest after t years is given by the formula :

[tex]A=p+prt[/tex], where p is the principal amount , t is the time and r is the rate of interest.

For p= $1500 , r=3% =0.03 and t=5 years , we have

[tex]A=1500+1500(0.03)(5)\\\\\Rightarrow\ A=1725[/tex]

Hence, the total amount in an account eating simple interest after 5 years is $1725
