Answer:

Interest earned: 343.75

Balance at maturity: 2843.75

Step-by-step explanation:

simple interest formula

P(1+it)

interest earned:

(interest earned is the ending balance minus the beginning balance)

2500(1+.055*(30/12))-2500= 343.75

Balance at maturity

2500(1+.055*(30/12))= 2843.75

(another way to solve this part is to just add 343.75 (the interest earned) to the beginning balance)
