The question is-
If you can earn 25,000 a year today and the inflation rate continues at 3% per year, you'll need to make $33,598 in 10 years to have the same buying power. You would need to make $44, 771 if the inflation rate jumped to 6%. Confirm that these statements are accurate by finding the geometric mean rate of increase.
How do I set these up to solve and what are the correct answers?
Thanks!
