Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
This is permutation, since order matters. The formula for us is
₁₈P₅ =
which simplifies to
₁₈P₅ = 
The factorial of 13 cancels out on the top and bottom leaving you with
₁₈P₅ = 18 × 17 × 16 × 15 × 14
which comes to 1,028,160 ways
Another way to look at it is: the first 5 people of 18 finish and the others you don't care about. Once the first place person is first, there are only 4 of the 18 left to finish in second place. Then there are only 3 left to finish in third place, etc. So if we use that reasoning, we don't even need to use the formula, we can just say
18 * 17 * 16 * 15 * 14 and those are the first 5 people of 18 to finish.
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>
