Answer:

Micah make 616066.97 $ over seven years

Step-by-step explanation:

This increase is in the form of a geometric progression.

Micah takes a job with a starting salary of $78,000

First term of GP = $78,000

He earns a 4% increase each year

Common ratio =1+\frac{4}{100}=1.04

Sum of n terms of GP with first term a and common ratio r.

            s_n=\frac{a(r^n-1)}{r-1}

How much does Micah make over seven years, so wee need to find sum of GP when n = 7.

        s_7=\frac{78000(1.04^7-1)}{1.04-1}=616066.97\$

Micah make 616066.97 $ over seven years

So his job has a starting salary of $78,000 and he gets a 4% increase each year. 4% of 78,000 is 3120 since 3120 divided by .04 equals 78,000, and 78,000+3120 = 81120 x 7= 567,840. So every year he can make $81120 and multiply that by 7, Mica would earn $567,840 every 7 years with the 4% increase in his salary every year.

A car uses 8 gallons of gasoline to travel 192 miles. How many gallons are used to go 144 miles? *
antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer:

6 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

You can find this using the ration method.

If, 8 gallons : 192 miles

   x gallons : 144 miles

We must find the value of x, which is the number of gallons used to travel 144 miles.

Cross multiply the ratios.

192 x = 8 × 144

192 x = 1152

x = 1152 ÷ 192

x = 6

∴ It takes 6 gallons to travel 144 miles.
