Answer 2

Explanation:

Let f(t) represent Rosa's salary at Company A, t years after accepting a position at Company A,

Company A offered her a starting salary of $50,000 with a $2100 raise at the end of each year. This means that in t years, her salary would be

f(t) = 50000 + 2100t

let g(t) represent Rosa's salary at Company B t years after accepting a position at Company B. This means that in t years, her salary would be

g(t) = 50000(1 + 3.4/100)^t

g(t) = 50000(1.034)^t

The table would be

t f(t) g(t)

0 50000 50000

1 50000 + 2100 ×1 50000(1.034)^1

= 52100 = 51700

2 50000 +2100 ×2 50000(1.034)^2

= 54200 = 53457.8

2 50000 +2100 ×3 50000(1.034)^3

= 56300 = 55275.4
