A man gets a job with a salary of 37300 dollars a year. He is promised a 2550 dollars raise each subsequent year.
His total earning for a 7-year period is
(37300 * 7) + (2550 * 7 ) = $_________
To calculate the total earnings of the man over a 7-year period, we need to consider his initial salary and the subsequent yearly raises.
First, let's calculate his earnings for each year. His initial salary is $37,300, and he is promised a $2,550 raise each subsequent year.
Year 1: $37,300
Year 2: $37,300 + $2,550 = $39,850
Year 3: $39,850 + $2,550 = $42,400
Year 4: $42,400 + $2,550 = $44,950
Year 5: $44,950 + $2,550 = $47,500
Year 6: $47,500 + $2,550 = $50,050
Year 7: $50,050 + $2,550 = $52,600
To find the total earnings over the 7-year period, we simply add up his earnings for each year:
Total Earnings = Year 1 + Year 2 + Year 3 + Year 4 + Year 5 + Year 6 + Year 7
Total Earnings = $37,300 + $39,850 + $42,400 + $44,950 + $47,500 + $50,050 + $52,600
Evaluating the expression, we find that the man's total earning for the 7-year period is $314,650.
