The answer is x=2 hope this helps
Answers: A) $44,944
B) $50,499.0784
Math: Using the percentage calculator linked below 6% of $40,000 is $2,400. Since you're getting your second raise after your first and since it is a 6% raise from what you're getting paid at that time we add pay raise 1 to your starting pay before calculating the 6% for pay raise 2. $40,000+$2,400=$42,400. 6% of $42,400 is $2,544. $42,400+$2,544=$44,944, Since that is two pay raises that would be your earnings at the end of year two (answer A).
We continue calculating 6% then adding that onto the total before calculating it for the next year for problem B.
6% of $44,944 is $2,696.64. $44,944+$2,696.64=$47,640.64.
6% of $47,640.64 is $2,858.4384. $47,640.64+$2,858.4384=$50,499.0784. That's answer B.
Hopefully you can figure out C on your own! I feel a little bad for giving a partial answer but I think you can do this!

Answer:
Given the initial population of termites = 60
After 7 days the population of termites = 225
Step-by-step explanation:
We have given the initial termites and the population of termites after 7 days. Now we are required to find the exponential growth model that will help to predict the future population of termites.
We have, Y = Ca^x
When the value of x is zero then population (Y) is 60 termites.
Y = Ca^x
60 = Ca^x
Now, Y = 60a^x
At x = 7 days
Y = 225
225 = 60 a^7
a^7 = 225/60
a = 1.2078
Thus, final population will be, Y = 60(1.2078)^x
