Note: Enter your answer and show all the steps that you use to solve this problem in the space provided. Rita’s starting annual salary is $46,500. At the beginning of each new year, she receives a $1,975 raise. Write a recursive formula to represent her salary after n years. Show how to use this formula to find the salary for each of her first five years of work.

Formula/equation: F(x) = 1,975x + 46,500

First Year : $48,475

Second Year: $50,450

Third Year: $52,425

Fourth Year: $54,400

Fifth Year: $56,375

Step-by-step explanation:

Here is the linear equation you need to use to find her yearly salary:

F(x) = 1,975x + 46,500

For x subsitute year she is working. For example, if it's her first year substitute in 1 for the value of x.

F(x) = 1,975(1) + 46,500

If you want to find the total salary she earned in her 5 years, find the sum of the salaries.

Good luck!
