Using an exponential function, it is found that:
a) The doubling time of the salary is of approximately 20 years.
b) The salary will be of $160,000.
<h3>What is an exponential function?</h3>An increasing exponential function is modeled by:
In which:
- A(0) is the initial value.
- r is the growth rate, as a decimal.
The growth rate for this problem is:
r = 0.035.
The doubling time is t for which A(t) = 2A(0), hence:
t = 20 years.
You retire in 40 years, which is 2 doubling periods, hence the salary will be of:
40000 x 2 x 2 = $160,000.
