Respuesta :

apologiabiology
[tex]A=P(1+ \frac{r}{n})^{nt} [/tex]
A=futurer amount
P=present amount
r=rate in decimal
n=number of times compounded per year
t=time in years

A=2500
r=0.05
n=2
t=2

[tex]2500=P(1+ \frac{0.05}{2})^{(2)(2)} [/tex]
[tex]2500=P(1+ 0.025)^{4} [/tex]
[tex]2500=P(1.025)^{4} [/tex]
[tex]2500=P(1.025)^{4} [/tex]
divide both sides by [tex} 1.025^{4} [/tex]
2264.88=P

he should invest
$2264.88
