Answer:A.  $86.25

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula to calculate the simple interest is given by :-

[tex]I=Prt[/tex] , P is Principal amount , r is rate of interest and t is time.

Given : P= $75   ;  r= 5%=0.05 ;    t=3 years

Then, the simple interest will be:-

[tex]I=75\times0.05\times3=11.25[/tex]

Now, the money you have after 3years = P+I = $75+$11.25=$86.25

Hence, you would have $86.25 at the end of 3 years.
