Is there a way to program the exponential growth formula, compound interest formula, and etc, into a TI83 plus?

15 Jun

I just started using a TI83 plus and I am currently doing a lot of exponential functions and formulas like the exponential growth formula, compound interest formula, present value formula, and etc, and I was wondering if there is a way to program these in for quick reference? (So I don’t have to keep looking up the formula’s, its a lot to remember!)
Thanks for any tips on this!

Please help me with this compounded interest problem?

30 May

I have this posted in the mathematics section as well – just trying to get some well-rounded feedback by posting in a secondary category…

Allow me post the problem, and then I’ll tell you what my issue is:

Problem: You would like to have $4500 in 4 years for a special vacation following graduation by making deposits at the end of every six months in an annuity that pays 5% compounded semiannually.

How much should you deposit at the end of every six months? (using the formula P = A(r/n) / [(1 + r/n)^nt - 1]

Here’s my issue: I am using a graphing calculator and have plugged in all of my numbers accordingly. I keep getting approx. $495 when I use the calculator. When I manually do the formula, I get $35.12. I know that the correct answer is $516, but what am I doing wrong?

Please spell it out for me in steps – I have my first exam on Wednesday and I have to pass.

THANKS for your help – I REALLY appreciate it.
Thanks, Christian. I forgot to add that I am supposed to round up to the nearest dollar. The original answer is $515 and some-odd cents before rounding.

Can you avoid paying interest on your credit card if you pay it off in full before the min. payment is due?

29 May

It seems that I have heard some people say that they use their credit card and pay it off in full before the due date and they believe they pay absolutely no interest. Is this true? It seems to me that if you used a credit card and had an outstanding balance for say 20 days before the payment was due, you would have interest calculated on 20/360 days times rate times principle. Thanks.
