put this solution on YOUR website!$55,000 times 0.20 = $11,000
So, every year, he gets $11,000 raise.
55,000 + 11,000 = $66,000--->first year
$66,000 + 11,000 = $77,000--->second year
Continue this pattern until reaching the 10th year to find your answer.

My dad earns $55000 a year. if he get a 20% annual raise for each year how much money will he have after 10 years assuming not spending any of his sallary?
Since your dad's salary increases at 20% each year, then his annual salary increases exponentially
An increase of 20% signifies that each year, his salary becomes 120%, or 1.2 of what it was the previous year, which makes the multiplying factor 1.2, with the exponent being the year that is being sought
This calculates to the following equation:
Salary at end of 10 years =
Salary at end of 10 years =
Therefore, salary at end of 10 years = $
