Brandon is going to invest in an account paying an interest rate of 5% compounded quarterly. How much would Brandon need to invest, to the nearest dollar, for the value of the account to reach $490 in 16 years?

Brandon wants $490 in 16 years by investing "x" dollars in an account that pays  5% compounded quarterly.   How much is "x"?

Principal = Total / [ (1 + (r/n) )^ n * years]

n = 4 (for compounded quarterly)

Principal = 490 / [ (1. + (.05/4)) ^ 4 * 16]

Principal = 490 / [ (1.0125)^ 64]

Principal = 490 / 2.2145324106

Principal = 221.2656710971

So, if we invested 221.27 for 16 years at 5% compounded quarterly interest,  we would have a total of $490.00

step-by-step explanation:

to find the amount of gift bags to use all the supplies, find the gcf or greatest common factor. this is the largest number which multiplies evenly into each term.

48 has factors: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12. 16, 24, 48

80 has factors: 1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 16, 20, 40, 80

64 has factors: 1, 2, 4, 8, 8, 16, 32, 64

the highest number factor they all share in common is 8. this means there will be 8 bags with 6 pencils, 10 markers, and 8 stickers in each bag.
