The amount needed in the account when Frost retires is given by the annuity formula. Compounding is 2 times per year.
.. A = Pi/(n(1 -(1 +r/n)^(-nt)))
.. 17900 = P*.08/(2*(1 -(1 +.08/2)^(-2*12)))
.. 17900 = P*.04/(1 -(1.04^-24))
.. P ≈ 272,920.64
The compound interest formula can be used to find the present value required. 4015 days is 11 years (ignoring leap years), so the amount to deposit can be calculated from
.. A = P*(1 +r/n)^(nt)
.. 272,920.64 = P*(1 +.08/2)^(2*11) = P*1.04^22
.. P ≈ 115,160.33
We don't know about the company's obligation to Robert. To fulfill its obligation to Frost, it must deposit 115,160.33 today.
Answer:
Approximately 3.5 feet - Option B
Step-by-step explanation:
Imagine that you have this walkway around the garden, with dimensions 30 by 20 feet. This walkway has a difference of x feet between it's length, and say the dimension 30 feet. In fact it has a difference of x along both dimensions - on either ends. Therefore, the increases length and width should be 30 + 2x, and 20 + 2x, which is with respect to an increases area of 1,000 square feet.
( 30 + 2x ) 
( 20 + 2x ) = 1000 - Expand "( 30 + 2x ) ( 20 + 2x )"
600 + 100x + 4
= 1000 - Subtract 1000 on either side, making on side = 0
4 + 100x - 400 = 0 - Take the "quadratic equation formula"
( Quadratic Equation is as follows ) - 
,
,
There can't be a negative width of the walkway, hence our solution should be ( in exact terms ) 
. The approximated value however is 3.5081...or approximately 3.5 feet.
