- None of these..
As per given data
Inital monthly income = Rs 2500 pm
Increase in monthly income after every 6 months = 15000/12= Rs 1250.
Total earnings in 6 years = (6*12/2)[2*2500 +11*1250)=Rs. 675000 - 11 years agoHelpfull: Yes(3) No(6)
- 30000+15000*12,because the increase double in one year then we double the amount earned
- 11 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(2)
- Friends, this is related to arithmetic progression.
For each six months he earns half of his salary.
a= 15000 (Initial term)
d= 750(Common difference)
Sum of 6 years(12 terms)= a/2[2a+(n-1)d]
=229500 - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(0)
- salary is 30000 and increases 15000 p.a than
30000+7500+45000+45000+45000+45000+45000=262500 - 11 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(3)
