So there are two triangles here: Smaller one (ADE) and bigger one (ABC) and they both are similar.
So you can use proportions here.
AB / AC = AD / AE
AB = AD + DB = 6 + 1 = 7
AC = AE + 3
AD = 6
So plug in these values:
AB / AC = AD / AE becomes
7 / (AE + 3) = 6 / AE
Now do the cross multiply:
7 AE = 6 (AE + 3)
Now solve for AE:
7AE = 6AE + 18
AE = 18

Answer:
7.405882353 years
Step-by-step explanation:
Simple interest is
A = P(1+rt)
Where A is the amount in the account
P is the principle invested
r is the rate and
t is the time
6593.75 = 5000( 1+ .0425*t)
Divide each side by 5000
6593.75/5000 = ( 1+ .0425*t)
1.31475 = ( 1+ .0425*t)
Subtract 1 from each side
.31475 = .0425t
Divide each side by.0425
.31475/.0425 = .0425t/.0425
7.405882353 = t
