Answer:

The amount he must invest is $93200

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given

Amount is $400000

A=400000

interest rate is 6%

r=0.06

t=80-55=25 years

P is amount to be invested

we can use formula

[tex]A=P(1+r)^t[/tex]

now, we can plug values

[tex]400000=P(1+0.06)^{25}[/tex]

[tex]P=93199.452[/tex]

[tex]P=93200[/tex]
