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)

Find the x value 4x-28 9x
andriy [413]

Answer: -5.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

(4x + -28) = 9x

Reorder the terms:

(-28 + 4x) = 9x

Remove parenthesis around (-28 + 4x)

-28 + 4x = 9x

Solving

-28 + 4x = 9x

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-9x' to each side of the equation.

-28 + 4x + -9x = 9x + -9x

Combine like terms: 4x + -9x = -5x

-28 + -5x = 9x + -9x

Combine like terms: 9x + -9x = 0

-28 + -5x = 0

Add '28' to each side of the equation.

-28 + 28 + -5x = 0 + 28

Combine like terms: -28 + 28 = 0

0 + -5x = 0 + 28

-5x = 0 + 28

Combine like terms: 0 + 28 = 28

-5x = 28

Divide each side by '-5'.

x = -5.6

Simplifying

x = -5.6
