Answer:

she has $2925 in her account now

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello

I think I can help you with this

the amount that eloise currently has in her account is the sum of the initial amount + interest

Let

initial amount=$1500 = 100%

the amount that eloise currently has in her account is the sum of the initial amount + interest

100%+95%=195%

she has 195% of the initial value invested, you can find this value using a rule of three

if

$1500⇔100%

$x?     ⇔195%

[tex]\frac{1500}{100} =\frac{x}{195}\\ solve\ for\ x\\\frac{195*1500}{100}=x\\x=2925[/tex]

$2925

she has $2925 in her account now
