Tom just received a new job offer. he is told that his starting salary will be $75,000 per year. he is told his salary will probably be $81,000 in four years. we'll use this information to try to anticipate his future earnings in any given year. assume that y= tom's salary amount in dollars and x= the number of years worked. step 1.use the data given to find the rate of change, or the salary increase per year.( hint: compute the slope.) we are now going to use a line to model tom's salsry growth. step 2. use the data given and the slope value from step 1 to write the slope-intercept form of the line. step 3. based on your equation from step 2, what will tom's salary be in ten years?

The answer is 90,000

Step-by-step explanation:

So, what I did was take X(81,000) and subtracted it by Y(75,000) which came down to 6000, I then divided that number by 4 which gave me 1,500, (meaning his salary increases by 1,500 per year).  Lastly I multiplied that number(1,500) by 10, and added it by 75,000 which gave me the answer of 90,000.

answer: there are x+184 pages in olivia's book.

step-by-step explanation:

let the total number of pages in the book which olive has already read be x.

then if olive has 184 pages left to read, then the total number of pages are in olive's book= pages she has read+pages she has left to read

therefore, the total number of pages in olivia's book=

hence, there are x+184 pages in olivia's book.
