Lamonte just accepted a job at a new company where he will make an annual salary of $60000. Lamonte was told that for each year he stays with the company, he will be given a salary raise of $2000. How much would Lamonte make as a salary after 10 years working for the company? What would be his salary after tt years? Answer

Verified Answer :

Answer:

He makes $80,000 after 10 years and $(2,000t + 60,000) after t years.

Step-by-step explanation:

If Lamonte starts with $60,000 and has his salary increase by $2,000 every year, then his salary over time scan be represented by a linear equation of,

\(y=2000x+60000\)

where x is the number of years that he stays in the company and y being the value of his salary for that year.

So, after 10 years his salary is:

\(y=2000(10)+60000=80000\) in dollars.

After t years his salary is:

\(y=2000(t)+60000=2000t+60000\) in dollars
