A company offers two salary schemes for a 10-year period, Year I to Year 10 inclusive. Scheme 1: Salary in Year 1 is £P. Salary increases by £(21) each year, fanning an arithmetic sequence. Salary in Year 1 is £(P + 1800). Salary increases by £Teach year, forming an arithmetic sequence.

Scheme 2:

(a) Show that the total earned under Salary Scheme I for the lO-year period is £(IOP + 90T) (2) For the IO-year period, the total earned is the same for both salary schemes. (b) Find the value of T. (4) For this value of T, the salary in Year 10 under Salary Scheme 2 is £29850 (c) Find the value of P. (3)
