PV=FV/(1+i)^t
FV=7000, i=3.5%=0.035,t=9
put everything in the formula
PV=7000/(1+0.035)^9
PV=$5136.12
ANSWER
No real roots.
The roots are complex or imaginary.
EXPLANATION
The quadratic equation

has discriminant,

If the discriminant is less than zero , then the quadratic equation has no real roots.
The given discriminant is -9.
Since -9 is less than zero, it means the quadratic equation has complex or imaginary roots.
Not exactly sure but I think it's false hope this helps
