1. S = 5000.
2. S = 5000 + 1500 = 6500.
3. S = 6500 + 1500 = 8,000.
4. S = 8000 + 1500 = 9,500.
S = 5000 + 5000*0.3*(n-1).
Factor out 5000:
Eq: S = 5000(1 + 0.3*(n-1)).
2. S = 5000(1+0.3*(2-1)) = 6500.
3. S = 5000(1+0.3*(3-1)) = 8000.
4. S = 5000(1+0.3*(4-1)) = 9500.
2. S = 5000 + 1500 = 6500.
3. S = 6500 + 1500 = 8,000.
4. S = 8000 + 1500 = 9,500.
S = 5000 + 5000*0.3*(n-1).
Factor out 5000:
Eq: S = 5000(1 + 0.3*(n-1)).
2. S = 5000(1+0.3*(2-1)) = 6500.
3. S = 5000(1+0.3*(3-1)) = 8000.
4. S = 5000(1+0.3*(4-1)) = 9500.
