Question

a company offers a starting salary of $39,000 with raises of $2,200 per year. Find the total salary over a ten year period.

Answer 1

Unless you need an algebraic answer, you could just make a spreadsheet.

39000
41200
43400
45600
47800
50000
52200
54400
56600
58800
489000 (total)

I must say, those are pretty good raises too. On average, 4.7% per year or so.

Answer 2

thank you
