Explanation Given: The annual salary contract for a basketball player is $5,000,000 for six years. The first offer made is a bonus $400,000 each year and the second offer is 5% increase in salary each year. Definition used: n terms of Arithmetic sequence: The nth term of the arithmetic sequence is given by a n = a 1 + ( n − 1 ) d , where a n is any term, a 1 is the first term and d is the common difference. n terms of Geometric sequence: The n th term of the geometric sequence is given by a n = a 1 r n − 1 , where a n is any term, a 1 is the first term and r is the common ratio. Sum of n terms in Arithmetic sequence: The sum of n terms of the arithmetic sequence is given by S n = n 2 ( a 1 + a n ) , where a n is any term, a 1 is the first term. Sum of n terms in Geometric sequence: The sum of n terms of the geometric sequence is given by S n = a 1 ( 1 − r n ) 1 − r , where a n is any term, a 1 is the first term. Calculation: It is given that annual salary contract for a basketball player is $5,000,000 for 6 years. That is, a 1 = 5 , 000 , 000 , n = 6 . Note that, the first offer forms an arithmetic sequence whereas the second offer forms a geometric sequence. The arithmetic sequence obtained by the first offer is as follows: It is given that the bonus provided is 400,000. That is, d = 400000 . Substitute a 1 = 5 , 000 , 000 , n = 6 and d = 400000 in a n = a 1 + ( n − 1 ) d to obtain the value of a 6 as follows: a 6 = 5000000 + ( 6 − 1 ) 400000 = 5000000 + ( 5 ) 400000 = 5000000 + 2000000

Unitary Method

The word “unitary” comes from the word “unit”, which means a single and complete entity. In this method, we find the value of a unit product from the given number of products, and then we solve for the other number of products.

Speed, Time, and Distance

Imagine you and 3 of your friends are planning to go to the playground at 6 in the evening. Your house is one mile away from the playground and one of your friends named Jim must start at 5 pm to reach the playground by walk. The other two friends are 3 …

Profit and Loss

The amount earned or lost on the sale of one or more items is referred to as the profit or loss on that item.

Units and Measurements

Measurements and comparisons are the foundation of science and engineering. We, therefore, need rules that tell us how things are measured and compared. For these measurements and comparisons, we perform certain experiments, and we will need the experime…
