Answer:

f(n)= 36,000(0.05) + 36,000 (0.05)² + 36,000 (0.05)³ +...+ 36,000 (0.05)ⁿ =

f(n)= 36,000(0.05) ( 1 +0.05 + 0.05² + ...+ 0.05ⁿ⁻¹)

Step-by-step explanation:

The problem tells us that Marco makes 36,000 dollars a year, if he receives a 5% raise, we will need to multiply the current amount by 0.05 to know how much more is he getting:

(36000)(0.05)= 1800

However the problem doesn't end up there because <u>on the second year he will get a 5% of the amount he will be making after the first 5% raise</u>. So after the first year <u>he will be getting (36,000 + 1800 = 37800) and he will get a 5% raise</u>, so he will get a raise of

37800 (0.05)

We can write this as a function in terms of the numbers of years that have passed,

for year 1 we have that the raise will be:

f(1) = 36,000(0.05)

for the second year we will have

f(2) = 36,000 (0.05) + 36,000 (0.05)²

so for the nth year, the amount of raise will be

f(n)= 36,000(0.05) + 36,000 (0.05)² + 36,000 (0.05)³ +...+ 36,000 (0.05)ⁿ

= 36,000(0.05) ( 1 +0.05 + 0.05² + ...+ 0.05ⁿ⁻¹)

Laura retired from her job recently, and she has saved about $396,460.00 over the course of her career. She plans to withdraw $1
Tomtit [17]
So she has 396460
she will withdarw 1700 per month, and withdraw is loss or minus or (-)

after x months, she has 359060 left so

total-withdrawn=remaining
withdrawwn=1700 times months so withdrawn=1700x
total-1700x=remaining
total=396460
reaining=359060
subsitute
isolate x then divide is the strategy

396460-1700x=359060
add 1700x to both sides
396460=359060+1700x
subtract 359060 from both sides
37400=1700x
divide both sides by 1700
22=x

she has been retired for 22 months

An employee named Bolarry in a restaurant makes $22.50 an hour. He gets a 12.5% raise (Markup). What does this man make for a we
Andrew [12]

Answer:

$911.25

Step-by-step explanation:

For 1 day the man works for 6 hours.

Then for 6 days the man will work for (6×6)hours = 36 hours

If the man makes $22.5 an hour, then for 36 hours, the man will earn ($22.5×36) = $810

Given, that the man gets a 12.5% raise, the we would have to apply the formula, where the 12.5% should be added to $810.

New Value/Old Value = 100 + rate/100

New Value/$810 = 112.5/100

By solving this equation, we get $911.25. So the man will earn $911.25 if he works for 6days a week.
