Answer 2

Years: 25 years .

step-by-step explanation:

Tobias' grandfather had left $2,000 in an account for college. The account earned 6% simple interest and accumulated $3,000 in interest. To determine how many years the money was left in the account, we can use the formula I = Prt, where I is the interest earned, P is the principal (initial amount), r is the interest rate, and t is the time in years. Substituting the given values, we get 3,000 = 2,000 x 0.06 x t. Solving for t gives us 25 years, which means the money was left in the account for 25 years.
