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:
13/6
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the denominator is the same, you can add the numerator. 13/6 is the simplest form.
It is 9 because you need to triple 3 so 3x3 is 9
A geologist in South America discovers a bird skeleton that contains 80% of its original amount of C-14
We use formula 
N0= initial amont of C-14 (at time t=0)
N= amount of C-14 at time t
t= time, in years
k= 0.0001
N is 80% of N0 that is 


Divide both sides by N_o

Take ln on both sides

ln(0.8) = -0.0001t ln(e)
ln(0.8) = -0.0001t
Divide both sides by -0.001
t = 2231.435513
The age of the bird skeleton is 2231 years old
