Answer:

The average rate of change of the cost of a pack is 22 cents per year.

Another name for the average <em>rate of change</em> is <em>slope</em>.

Step-by-step explanation:

The average rate of change of the cost of a pack (r), in monetary units per year, is equal to the change in the average cost of a pack (\Delta c), in monetary units, divided by the change in time (\Delta t), in years. Then, the average rate of change is:

r = \frac{\$\,5.31-\$\,0.88}{2000-1980}

r = \$\,0.22\,\frac{1}{yr}

The average rate of change of the cost of a pack is 22 cents per year.

Another name for the average <em>rate of change</em> is <em>slope</em>.

Value discounting refers to the fact that the percieved value of the reinforcer is less the longer you have to wait for it. See
vekshin1

Answer:

there is an economic principle that states that 1 dollar today is worth more than 1 dollar in the future, since an invested dollar could earn interests and gain value.

For example, we can assume a 6% interest rate (0.5% monthly interest rate), and using the present value formula we can determine the present value of $100:

  • given to us in 30 days = $100 / (1 + 0.5%)¹ = $99.50
  • given to us in 150 days = $100 / (1 + 0.5%)⁵ = $97.54
  • given to us in 300 days = $100 / (1 + 0.5%)¹⁰ = $95.13

In order to calculate the value of $100 given to us tomorrow, we would need to determine a daily interest rate = 6% / 360 = 0.00017

  • $100 given to us tomorrow = $100 / (1 + 0.00017)¹ = $99.98

since the amount of money is not that large and the interest rate is rather low, the difference in value is not that large. But imagine if you used a 24% interest rate instead of 6% (monthly interest rate = 2%)

  • $100 given to us in 30 days = $100 / (1 + 2%)¹ = $98.04
  • $100 given to us in 150 days = $100 / (1 + 2%)⁵ = $90.57
  • $100 given to us in 300 days = $100 / (1 + 2%)¹⁰ = $82.03

as the interest rate increases, the present value decreases.
