Jorge's starting salary is $36,500. at the beginning of each year he receives a $2,375 raise. write an explicit formula to represent his salary after n years. what will his salary be after 15 years.

The answer is 72,125 US dollars

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the starting salary be P,

At the beginning of each year he receives an additional 2,375 raise

Since the number of years can be represented by n, it means for every year he gets 2375 raise, therefor the equation comes to n×2,375

Since its an addition to his starting salary of 36500, we add his starting salary to the raise per year to calculate his total salary after n years, which can be represented by the equation=P+(n*2,375)

Substitute P=36,500, n=15, in the equation above we get

Salary= 36,500+(15*2,375)=72,125

tube or goog would be a great resource to with that question
