Problema Solution

A man earned $2500 the first year he worked. If he received a raise of $400 at the end of each year, what was his salary during the 15th year?

Answer provided by our tutors

2500+2900+3300+........15 times.

It is in Arithmatic progression.

n th term =a+(n-1)*d

n=15.

a=2500

d=400.

15 th term =2500+(15-1)*400

=8900.

15 th year salary =$8900.
