Answer :

Let f(t) be 51000+ (2100)t which represent Chelsea's salary at Company A and g(t) be 45000(1.041)t which Chelsea salary at Company B.

Chelsea's offer from company A includes a raise of $2100 annually and a starting salary of $45,000.

Since the increase is constant, the salary of Chelsea from Company A is a linear function, as can be seen here.

f(t) is salary of chelsea from company A after t years.

f(t) = 45000+ (2100)t

The offer made to Chelsea by company B includes a starting salary of $45,000 and an annual raise of 4.1%.

we can see here that raise is exponential, so raise is:

(1+4.1/100) = (1+0.041) = (1.041) per year.

Consequently, the salary of Chelsea from Company B is a function that is exponential.

g(t) is salary of chelsea from company B after t years.

g(t) = 45000(1.041)t
