Answer:

$475.17

Explanation:

Step one:

given data

rate= 3.5% = 0.035

final amount A= $670

time= 10 years

Required

The principal invest P

Step two:

A= P(1+r)^t

substitute


670=P(1+0.035)^1^0\\\\670=P(1.035)^1^0\\\\670=P*1.41

divide by 1.41


P= 670/1.41\\\\P=475.17

The invested principal is $475.17
