Answer:

348,750 dollars in 3 years

Step-by-step explanation:

   You inheritanced 15,500 dollars. You put that into a account which has a 7.5% interest rate for one year. 15,500 x 7.5 = 116,250 a year. now you want to know how much that'll be in 3 years multiply 116,250 x 3 = 248,750.

(I'm sorry if this is incorrect i tried doing the math correctly!)

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

I = P x r x t

p=15500

i=7.5% must change to decimal of 0.075

t= 3 (years)

In this case

I= 15,500 X 0.075 X 3=  3,487.5

(1, 162.5 x 3)= 3487.5

Solved to nearest dollar of 3,488
