Answer:

after the raise, her salary is $1755 per month
this is a +17% change from her original salary

Step-by-step explanation:

The multiplier of her original salary to her reduced salary is ...

(1 - 10%) = 0.90

The multiplier of her reduced salary after her raise is ...

(1 +30%) = 1.30

The multiplier of her raised salary from her original salary is ...

(0.90)(1.30) = 1.17 = (1 +17%)

Her salary after the 17% raise is ...

1.17·1500/mo = $1755/mo
