At age 30, you start saving for retirement. If your savings plan pays 8% and you want to have $3,000,000 when you retire in 35 years, how much do you need to deposit monthly. Can someone teach me the steps of solving this problem?

OpenStudy (cwtan):

1st Year--3000000 2nd year--3000000(1.08) 3rd year--3000000(1.08)(1.08) It produce a geometrical series with a=3000000,r=1.08 and we want to find the 5th term 5th Term= 3000000(\(1.08^4\))

OpenStudy (cwtan):

sorry i see wrong we need to find the 35th term not 5th term 35th term= 3000000(\(1.08^{34}\))

OpenStudy (cwtan):

sorry again i see wrong the question == it's 35th term=a(\(1.08^{34}\))=3000000 and u need to find a
