Algebra: Your Summer Goal?

Tuesday June 23, 2009
Upon beginning our summer holidays, we're just so full of goals and things we want to accomplish. If improving your understanding of Algebra happens to be one of your goals, these self-directed teaching books are for you, well maybe! Of course, individuals who learn on their own tend to be quick learners who can learn by seeing examples of questions with step by step answers. If this isn't your learning style, I would highly recommend going the tutor route instead.

Wondering if you can make sense of examples? Try this one first on Quadratic Functions.

I am trying to calculate the interest rate for a loan. I have the monthly payment amount, principle, and length of the loan. How do I calculate the interest? I would really like to get a chart of formulas if there’s one out there.
Thanks in advance.

I would recommend CRC Standard Mathematical tables, on page 634 are formula’s requested for Financial calculation’s as well as tables for values.
