The options you gave are extremely confusing, but if you round 7.9 it is 8, and if you round $3.89 it is $4. Therefore, the best estimate would be 8•$4, or $32

Where is the rest of the question? What is it asking?
Step-by-step explanation:
Well I guess if you want to change up the equation you can do 7 * X = Y

I'm assuming the funds earn 5% yearly?
Call x the amount he saves every year. The first year's deposit will be multiplied by 1.05 three times, the next will be multiplied by 1.05 twice, the third will be multiplied by 1.05 once, and the fourth will not generate interest (as it will immediately be used to buy the car).
Therefore, x(1.05^3+1.05^2+1.05+1)=21000, so 4.31x=21000. Dividing by 4.31, we see that x is approximately equal to 4872.
