College Algebra Project Saving for the Future In this project you will investigate compound interest‚ specifically how it applies to the typical retirement plan. For instance‚ many retirement plans deduct a set amount out of an employee’s paycheck. Thus‚ each year you would invest an additional amount on top of all previous investments including all previously earned interest. If you invest P dollars every year for t years in an account with an interest rate of r (expressed as a decimal) compounded

The History of Algebra The history of algebra has been around for several decades‚ this method of mathematics has been used during the beginning of time. The development of algebraic notation progressed through out three stages: the rhetorical stage‚ the syncopated stage‚ and the symbolic stage with which we are use to using in our daily usage of algebra. In ancient civilization math was used to help leaders to strategically form how their troops should be lined up for battle and help decide

Algebra is one of the broad parts of mathematics‚ together with number theory‚ geometry and analysis. For historical reasons‚ the word "algebra" has several related meanings in mathematics‚ as a single word or with qualifiers. • As a single word without article‚ "algebra" names a broad part of mathematics (see below). • As a single word with article or in plural‚ "algebra" denotes a specific mathematical structure. See algebra (ring theory) and algebra over a field. • With a qualifier‚ there

History: The Cartesian coordinate system is named after René Descartes(1596-1650)‚ the noted French mathematician and philosopher‚ who was among the first to describe its properties. However‚ historical evidence shows that Pierre de Fermat (1601-1665)‚ also a French mathematician and scholar‚ did more to develop the Cartesian system than did Descartes. The development of the Cartesian coordinate system enabled the development of perspective and projective geometry. It would later play an intrinsic
