Employees at a certain company are scheduled to earn a 1.9%1.9% pay increase each year to adjust for the cost of living. An employee starts at a salary of $35,000$35,000 per year and wants to know how long it will take to earn at least $40,000$40,000 per year. If the employee receives no additional raises, which statement is true?

The time it will take to earn at least $40,000 per year is 7.

Step-by-step explanation:

The information provided explains that the salary of an employee has an exponential growth.

That is, an employees salary is increasing exponentially at a constant rate.

The exponential growth function is:

Here,

y = final value

a = initial value

r = growth rate

n = time

Compute the time it takes for and employee's salary to increase from $35,000 to $40,000 as follows:

Taking natural log on both sides,

Thus, the time it will take to earn at least $40,000 per year is 7.

(2x + 16) + (x) = 180

step-by-step explanation:

given,

abcd is a quadrilateral inscribed in a circle

angle a is labeled x plus 16, (x + 16)

angle b is labeled x degrees, (x)

angle c is labeled 6x minus 4, (6x – 4)

angle d is labeled 2x plus 16, (2x + 16)

what equation can be used to solve for angle b?

we know that the sum of the opposite angles of a simple quadrilateral inscribed in a circle is 180 degrees.

angle b is opposite angle d

therefore, angle b + angle d = 180

(x) + (2x + 16) = 180 

same as (2x + 16) + (x) = 180
