1) Linear model

R(t) = y = at + b

Where t is the year - 2000 (year since 2000)

For year 2006, t = 6; for year 2010, t = 10

Then:

1) 10.7 = a*6 + b
2) 34.2 = a*10 + b

Subtract (1) from (2)

34.2 - 10.7 = 10a -6a

23.5 = 4a

a = 23.5/4 = 5.875

Now from (1) 10.7 = 6a + b => b = 10.7 - 6a = 10.7 - 6*5.875 = - 24.55

Then the resulting model is R(t) = 5.875a - 24.55 


2) Exponential model

R(t) = A[B]^t

(1) 10.7 = A[B]^6
(2) 34.2 = A[B]^10

Divide (2) by (1)

[34.2/10.7] = [B]^10 / [B]^6

3.1963 = [B]^4 => B = 1.3371

Now, from (1) 10.7 = A [1.3371]^6 => A = 10.7 / [1.337]^6 = 1.8725

Then, the model is R(t) = 1.8725{1.3371]^t

Find the discount on a note for $23,000 made by Jacques on February 10 to be repaid on August 10 of the same year with a discoun
Olenka [21]

Total Value =$23,000

Time = 10 february to 10 august = 6 months

And

Rate of discount = 9% =0.09


Now we have to find the discount on the note

So we multiply the amount , time and rate

but time should be in years

So 6 months = 6/12 years = 0.5 years


So

Discount = 23,000 * 0.5 * 0.09 = 1035


Hence total Discount = $1035
