Use Multiplication Properties of Exponents · Exercise 86
Salary Raul’s boss gives him a raise every year on his birthday. This means that each year, Raul’s salary is times his last year’s salary. If his original salary was \\text{40},\text{000}1$\text{40},\text{000} \left(1.05\right),2$\text{40},\text{000} \left(1.05\right)^{2},3$\text{40},\text{000} \left(1.05\right)^{3},10$ years? Simplify the expression, to show Raul’s salary in dollars.
\begin{array}{|c|c|}\hline \text{Year} & \text{Salary} \\ \hline 1 & \\text{text40,text000 left(1.05right)$} \\ \hline 2 & \\text{text40,text000 left(1.05right)^2$} \\ \hline 3 & \\text{text40,text000 left(1.05right)^3$} \\ \hline \ldots & \ldots \\ \hline 10 &? \\ \hline\end{array}
