The equation s=p(1+r)^t can be used to model a person’s future income. S = future salary, p = current salary, r = rate of increase, and t = time in years. Susan’s salary increases by 3% each year. If she starts at $43,000 per year, what will her salary be in 5 years?

Verified Answer :

P = 43,000
 r = 1.03
 t = 5

s = p(1+r)^t

s = 43000(1.03)^5
s=49,850

Given that,

p = current salary= $43,000

r = rate of increase = 0.03

t = time in years = 5

Substituting these values in the given equation,
