Question 1115117: Rebecca graduated from college as a dental assistant. She was offered two possible compensation packages. Package A offered a starting salary of $40,000 and a guaranteed raise of $1,200 each year. Package B offered a starting salary of $35,000 and a guaranteed raise of 3% each year. Without making any calculations, which package would you advise Rebecca take? Explain.
Answer by addingup(3677) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
can you add in your head? how much is 35 + 35? And that + 35? In your head, not with pencil and paper.
Now, what's more, 40,000 + 1200 or 35000 + 1050?
If you can't answer this you need some serious help, talk to your teacher.
