9514 1404 393

  9.23%

Step-by-step explanation:

The account balance for simple interest is given by ...

  554 = 379(1 +r·5)

  554 = 379 + 1895r . . . . eliminate parentheses

  175 = 1895r . . . . . . . . . subtract 379

  r = 175/1895 ≈ 0.092348 ≈ 9.23%

Jennifer's account had an interest rate of about 9.23%.
