at the same school district for 40 years? During what year of working would this
teacher reach their dream income of $55,000 per year?

Sagot :

The teacher's income after 40 years would be  $97,000.

The teacher would earn her dream income in the 12th year.

The function that represents this question

The function that represents this question is the sum of the starting salary and the increase in income per month.

Total income = starting income + (increase in income x number of years)

Income after 40 years

$37,000 + ($1500 x 40)

= $37,000 + $60,000

= $97,000

When the dream income would be achieved

$55,000 = $37000 + ($1,500x y)

$55,000 - $37000 =  ($1,500x y)

$18,000 = $1,500y

y = $18,000 / $1500

y = 12 years
