Return to Roadmap Pages

The detailed notes page actually makes a few good points and it has links to additional pages that cover the material in Chapter 4. Those additional pages are
  1. A page walking through doing a linear programming problem, in 2-dimensions, by graphing on a calculator: Linear Programming by Hand
  2. A page walking through using the Simplex Method to solve a linear programming problem in two dimensions.
  3. A page that has links to solutions for many different two dimensional Linear Programming problems: Examples of Basic Simplex Method.
  4. A page introducing walking through the use of the SM3 program on the TI=83/84 calculators: Simplex Example.
  5. A page with numerous links to other examples Simplex Method. Each example could be followed on a TI-83/84 calculator using the SM3 program: Numerous Simplex Examples.
On the other hand, here is a listing of the topics covered in Chapter 5. Later, as time permits, some of these will be changed to hold links to web pages detailing the specific topic.
  1. Simple interest formula: I = P*R*T
  2. Multi-letter variables: FV = PV * I or FV = PV(1+R*T)
  3. Present value, Future value
  4. Solving for each variable
  5. Compound Interest
  6. Solving for each variable
  7. Effective rate
  8. Using TVM (time value of money)
  9. Using the FINANCL program
  10. Annuities
  11. Loans
  12. Ammortization schedules
