Remember that

The simple interest formula is equal to

[tex]I=Prt[/tex]

where

P=$7000

I=$1750

t=5 years

substitute given values

[tex]\begin{gathered} 1750=7000(5)(r) \\ solve\text{ for r} \\ r=\frac{1750}{7000(5)} \\ \\ r=0.05 \\ Convert\text{ to percentage} \\ 0.05*100=5\% \end{gathered}[/tex]

therefore

The answer is 5%
