As you increase the subintervals the area will be closer and closer to the real value. In other words your approximation gets better.
As you increase the intervals, there will be more rectanagles and the added area of these rectangles are converging towards the actual area under the curve.
Answer: he should invest $16129 today.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let $P represent the initial amount that should be invested today. It means that principal,
P = $P
It would be compounded annually. This means that it would be compounded once in a year. So
n = 1
The rate at which the principal would be compounded is 7.6%. So
r = 7.6/100 = 0.076
The duration of the investment would be 6 years. So
t = 6
The formula for compound interest is
A = P(1+r/n)^nt
A = total amount in the account at the end of t years.
A = 25000
Therefore
25000 = P(1+0.076/1)^1×6
25000 = P(1.076)^6
25000 = 1.55P
P = 25000/1.55
P = $16129
Let, the number = x
It would be: x * 0.135 = 57
x = 57 / 0.135
x = 422.23
