<span>Because <span>t <span>is given in years and 1.08 <span>= <span>1 <span>+ <span>0.08, the annual percent increase
<span>is 8%.
To find the monthly percent increase that gives an 8% annual increase,
<span>use the fact that
t =

(-1, 5) because if you plug in -1 to both equations, you should get 5 from both equations. They also cross at that point, making that the solution.
So the points are (-3/7,-8/3) and (-5/2,-2)
to find the slope do
(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
(x,y)
x1=-3/7
y1=-8/3
x2=-5/2
y2=-2
