  1. Solution:

    i.e after 1995, the salary of each year are:

    5000, 5200, 5400, …

    a = 5000

    d = 200

    Let in nth year, his salary be Rs 7000.

    i.e, by the nth term formula of AP,

    an = a+(n−1) d

    7000 = 5000+(n−1)200

    200(n−1)= 2000

    (n−1) = 10

    n = 11

    i.e in the 11th year, his salary will become Rs 7000.
