    Answer:

    • interest: $353.38
    • total: $4978.38

    Step-by-step explanation:

    The equation for calculating the balance in an account earning compound interest is …

      A = P(1 +r)^t

    where r is the annual rate and t is the number of years.

    For Sam’s account, the balance after 2 years is …

      A = $4625(1 +0.0375)^2 = $4978.38

    The interest is the amount in excess of the deposited amount:

      $4978.38 -4525.00 = $353.38

    Sam’s interest was $353.38, giving him a total of $4978.38.
