Hi. I don't know if I have ever posted before, but I need some help with one of my math questions. Math is my favorite subject but I don't know how to do this...
Equation 1 is easy to solve. Divide both sides by 3 and get X=-4 Next substitute -4 for X in equations 2 and 3 (2) 1= -4 +Y = 2z Maybe we should have done...
I think equation (2) is a typo. In equation (1) divide both sides by 3. This gives X = -4. Substitute X = -4 into equation (3). Now we have -8 -Y = -9. Add 8...
Hi, can anyone help me refresh with the theory on the present value computation? I need a manual approach (although i think a scientific calculator can readily...
You mean if the value of P1 increases at the rate of 7% per year over thirty years? Well, every year the value is increased by afactor of 1.08, so after thirty...
... I'm assuming that n=30 means there are 30 payments involved. I'll also assume that they're annual payments (8% being the annual rate), and that they...
I don't recall hearing of the present value formula so I did a google search. There is one parameter which you are leaving out, the future value, call it F. In...
The answer is .09938. I would like to figure how was it computed manually. And right, P1 refers to the amount of 1 in peso denomination. Thanks everyone, for...
... Lets look at it in a Baconian and then Fermatian way. We know that a certain initial amount of money A_0 will be increased to a future amount A_1 if we...
Hi Emily, If the answer is .09938, then the question is: "How much must one invest at 8% (per year) for 30 years in order to have 1 at the end of that time?" ...

On some calculators you can do it with even fewer button pushes. On my calculator I can get the answer without using memory. I press '1' and then '=' and then...

Those are surprisingly elegant numbers for the expectations; one involves pi, the other e. I didn't realize it when I first stumbled upon this problem, but it...
