Answer:

simple interest = $300

compound interest =$102.5

Explanation:

Simple interest = P* T* R

P= principal, T= time, R= rate

P= $1000, T= 3, R = 0.1

simple interest = 1000 * 3 *0.1 = $300

compound interest = p[(1 + r)ⁿ - 1]

compound interest = 1000[(1 + 0.05)² - 1]

= 1000[1.1025 - 1]

= 1000 * 0.1025

= $102.5
