Tha amount of money that matt received by bank after 5 years is = 3000$

Explanation : For calculate this first we have to find the simple interest on the amount 

Simple interest = P * R * T / 100

P = Principal that is : 2000 $

R = Rate of interest that is : 10%

T = Time of period that is : 5 years

so , apply all the values in the formula then :  2000 * 10 * 5 = 1,00,000 

Now divide this value by 100 : 1,00,000 / 100 = 1,000

The interest that bank pays to matt on 2000$ for 5 years is = 1000$ 

 After 5 years matt received money by bank is = 2000$ + 1000$ = 3000$
