87500 = n/6*(66,000-1500+1500n)

87500 = n/6*(64,500+1500n)

10750n+250n^2 = 87500

250n^2 + 10750N - 87500 = 0

n = -50 or n = 7

n =/= -50 therefore n = 7

LOL I managed to find the first year one-third of her annual (not cumulative) salary equals $87500... 154 years. So like in the 154th year she saves exactly $87500 of her now $262500 salary. I blame the wording

but ii) is like 330796.93 ..right?
