Answer:
80,000 + 1.04 to the forth power
Step-by-step explanation:
First term is initial number
Second term is one plus the percent as a decimal (if it’s an increase)
Then to the power of 4 assuming that there are 4 year in between 2016 and this year, 2020
by 10 years it'll be 24439 but by 11 it'll be 25661 so it's technically 11 years
The independent variable (the one they want) is the # of hours worked, since that determines the price.
