    The total amount in Dana's account will consist of her $3,000 investment plus $1,500 in interest earned. The formula for simple interest is

    I = Prt

    Substituting given values, we have

    1500 = 3000*0.05*t = 150t

    1500/150 = t = 10

    It will take 10 years for the total amount in Dana's account to reach $4,500.
