The question is incomplete. The complete question is :
Jaina and Tomas compare their compound interest accounts to see how much they will have in the accounts after three years. They substitute their values shown below into the compound interest formula. Compound Interest Accounts Name Principal Interest Rate Number of Years Compounded Jaina $300 7% 3 Once a year Tomas $400 4% 3 Once a year. Which pair of equations would correctly calculate their compound interests?
Solution :
It is given that Jaina and Tomas wants to open an account by depositing a principal amount for a period of 3 years and wanted to calculate the amount they will have using the compound interest formula.
<u>So for Jiana</u> :
Principal, P = $300
Rate of interest, r = 7%
Time, t = 3
Compounded yearly
Therefore, using compound interest formula, we get
<u>Now for Tomas </u>:
Principal, P = $400
Rate of interest, r = 4%
Time, t = 3
Compounded yearly
Therefore, using compound interest formula, we get
Therefore, the pair of equations that would correctly calculate the compound interests for Jaina is .
And the pair of equations that would correctly calculate the compound interests for Tomas is .
3) This is definitely a positive association, but the question is - is it linear?
Since a somewhat straight line can be drawn through the points, it is linear.
<span>Answer: positive linear association
</span>
4) Find the slope using the formula
m = 43 - 48/ 4 - 2 = -5/2 = -2.5
Negative association, but is it linear? Lets find out
Oh no! It seems that their is not a pattern in the association, so its nonlinear!
Answer: Negative nonlinear association
5) <span>
m = 80 - 66/ 5 - 3
m = 14/2
m = 7
Positive! But is it linear??
Let us draw a graph this time.
I know my graph is messy, but can you see the nonlinear-ness? It doesnt form a straight line!
Answer: Positive nonlinear association
