Answer:

$4, 656. 10

Explanation:

To get the amount that Brenda needs to invest, we use a re-arranged formula for calculating future values

PV =     FV

             (1+r)n

Pv = present value

FV= 8000

r =7 percent or 0.07

n=8

PV = $8000

       (1+0.07)8

PV=$8000/1.7181861

PV = $4,656.07

Brenda must deposit $4, 656.1
