Last year's salary is $32000
Step-by-step explanation:
We will use the linear equations to solve the given problem
Let x be the last years salary
then
0.06x will be the raise in the salary
This year's salary is $33920
So,
[tex]x+0.06x=33920\\1.06x=33920[/tex]
Dividing both sides by 1.06
[tex]\frac{1.06x}{1.06}=\frac{33920}{1.06}\\=32000[/tex]
Hence,
Last year's salary is $32000
