Initial salary = $50,000 .
Rate of raise = 5% each year.
Therefore, each next year salary would be 105% that is 1.05 times.
5% of 50,000 = 0.05 × 50000 = 2500.
Therefore raise is $2500 each year.
According to geometric sequence first term 50000 and common ratio 1.05.
Applying geometric sequence formula

1) 
2) In order to find salary in 5 years we need to plug n=5, we get

= 50000(1.21550625)
<h3>=$60775.3125.</h3>
3) In order to find the total salary in 10 years we need to apply sum of 10 terms formula of a geometric sequence.

Plugging n=10, a = 50000 and r= 1.05.


= 628894.62678.
<h3>Therefore , you will have earned $ 628894.62678 in total salary by the end of your 10th year.</h3>
Fermat's little theorem states that

≡a mod p
If we divide both sides by a, then

≡1 mod p
=>

≡1 mod 17

≡1 mod 17
Rewrite

mod 17 as

mod 17
and apply Fermat's little theorem

mod 17
=>

mod 17
So we conclude that

≡1 mod 17
Answer:
a) x = 2
b) x = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
a = (b₁ + b₂)/2 * h
----------------------------
a)
48 = (10 + x)/2 * 8
Divide both sides by 8
6 = (10 + x)/2
multiply both sides by 2
12 = 10 + x
Subtract 10 from both sides
2 = x
x = 2
---------------------------------
b)
18 = (7 + 2)/2 * x
18 = 4.5 * x
divide both sides by 4.5
4 = x
x = 4
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
From the table given in the question,
x y Difference Ratio
1 12 - -
2 36 36-12 = 24 
3 108 108-36 = 72 
4 324 324-108 = 216 
5 972 972-324 = 648 
There is a common ratio of 3 in each successive term.
Therefore, data given in the table will represent an exponential function.

For a point 

------(1)
For another point of the table
,

--------(2)
Equation (2) divided by equation (1)


From equation (1),


Therefore, exponential function will be,

Answer:
8/9
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation to find a slope is y2-y1/x2-x1=m. (m is the slope)
174-166/173-164
8/9
So the slope is 8/9.
