Respuesta :

Answer:(a)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Principal amount [tex]P=\$ 5000[/tex]

Rate of interest [tex]R=3.5\ \%[/tex]

Time [tex]T=5\ years[/tex]

Simple interest in 5 years

[tex]S.I.=\dfrac{P\times R\times T}{100}[/tex]

[tex]S.I.=\dfrac{5000\times 3.5\times 5}{100}[/tex]

[tex]S.I.=875\ \$[/tex]

So total amount after five years[tex]=5000+875=\$ \ 5875[/tex]
