Define the Duality Principal and Multiplying Matrices of Differing Size

1) Please explain in your own words the duality principle. 2) The biggest problem I have with matrices is the multiplication. I get them right but I believe the confusion comes from the way it is set up. To be more clear the way it is set up as far as the rows and columns. If it is a 3 x 2 times a 4 x 3 it can become somewhat c ...continues

Compound Interest

The question is: Find the amount due on each compound interest loan. $7500 at 6.5% for 8 years 6 months if the interest is compounded: a. Annually b. Quarterly c. Weekly I know the formula is A=P(1+(r/m))^(mt) but my question is, how do i write the ''8 years 6 months'' as my time (t)?

Compound Interest

The formula for the amount due on a loan is A= P (1+(r/m))^(mt) Now in the question the time in years (t) is 6 years 9 months. P= $17500 r=0.085 How do I write the time(t) in the equation? Also, what if the time was 4 years 3 months, how would I write that for the time in years (t)? Also, what does semiannually, mon ...continues
