Initial salary = $50,000 .
Rate of raise = 5% each year.
Therefore, each next year salary would be 105% that is 1.05 times.
5% of 50,000 = 0.05 × 50000 = 2500.
Therefore raise is $2500 each year.
According to geometric sequence first term 50000 and common ratio 1.05.
Applying geometric sequence formula
1)
2) In order to find salary in 5 years we need to plug n=5, we get
= 50000(1.21550625)
<h3>=$60775.3125.</h3>
3) In order to find the total salary in 10 years we need to apply sum of 10 terms formula of a geometric sequence.
Plugging n=10, a = 50000 and r= 1.05.
= 628894.62678.
<h3>Therefore , you will have earned $ 628894.62678 in total salary by the end of your 10th year.</h3>
Hello from MrBillDoesMath!
Answer: 104x^2 + 166x + 66
Discussion:
The area of a rectangle is given by "length" * "width". For us the formula becomes
(13x + 11) * (8x+6)
or
13x (8x +6) + 11 * (8x + 6) =
(13x * 8x + 13x* 6) + ( 11*8x + 11*6) =
(104x^2 + 78x ) + (88x + 66) =
104x^2 + (78x + 88x) + 66 =
104x^2 + 166x + 66
Thank you,
MrB
Answer: whats the question exactly?
Step-by-step explanation:
Alright, let's do this! If $25 is one fifth of how much the game system cost then, multiply 25 times 5. And you should get your answer.
I hope this helps.
Not sure question is complete, assumptions however
Answer and explanation:
Given the above, the function of the population of the ants can be modelled thus:
P(x)= 1600x
Where x is the number of weeks and assuming exponential growth 1600 is constant for each week
Assuming average number of ants in week 1,2,3 and 4 are given by 1545,1520,1620 and 1630 respectively, then we would round these numbers to the nearest tenth to get 1500, 1500, 1600 and 1600 respectively. In this case the function above wouldn't apply, as growth values vary for each week and would have to be added without using the function.
On one hand, the function above could be used as an estimate given that 1600 is the average growth of the ants per week hence a reasonable estimate of total ants in x weeks can be made using the function.
