Identify the formula that can be used to find the athlete’s salary, in thousands of dollars, for year n?
Find the first four terms, in thousands, of the geometric series. Round to the nearest thousand.
The athlete’s salary, in thousands, for year n can be represented by: an = 400(1.05)n-1.

Would you use the same method to find the eighth partial sum as you used to find the fifth partial sum? Why or why not?
Yes, I would use the same method because the formula for the nth partial sum of a geometric series, S_n = a1(1 - r^n) / (1 - r), works for any value of n. Using the formula is consistent and efficient
What is r?
1.05
a2 =
420
