A couple has $5,000 to invest and has to choose between three investment options.
  • Option A: 2\frac{1}{4}% interest applied each quarter
  • Option B: 3% interest applied every 4 months
  • Option C: 4\frac{1}{2}% interest applied twice each year
If they plan on no deposits and no withdrawals for 5 years, which option will give them the largest balance after 5 years? Use a mathematical model for each option to explain your choice.

Elena says that 6% interest applied semi-annually is the same as 1% interest applied every month: she reasons they are the same because they are both a 12% nominal annual interest rate.

Is Elena correct that these two situations both offer a 12% nominal annual interest rate?

Here is a graph of the function f given by f(x)=100*2^{x}.

Suppose g is the function given by g(x)=50*(1.5)^{x}.

Will the graph of g meet the graph of f for any positive value of x? Explain how you know.

Suppose m and c each represent the position number of a letter in the alphabet, but m represents the letters in the original message, and c represents the letters in a secret code.

The equation c=m+7 is used to encode a message.

Write an equation that can be used to decode the secret code into the original message.
