Question

Jeremiah just got hired for a new job and will make $35,000 in his first year. Jeremiah was told that he can expect to get raises of $3,500 every year going forward. How much money in salary would Jeremiah make in his 9th year working at this job?

Answer 1

63,000 because his first year he gets 35,000, plus the next 8 years, so 3,500 times 8 is 28,000 plus 35,000 is 63,000
