Answer: Final amount

Step-by-step explanation:

Final amount = Simple interest + Principal

=Principal x Rate x Time + Principal

= Principal (Rate x Time +1)    [Simple interest =Principal x Rate x Time]

 

Given: Principal = $15,000, Rate = 1.5% = 0.015  [To conver % into decimal we divide it by 100]

Time = 5 years

Final amount = $(15000(0.015 ×5+1))

=$ (15000×1.075)

=$ 16125

Hence, there will be $16,125 in the account after 5 years  if Julio makes no withdrawals or deposit.
