Correlation
The strength of a correlation is measured by?
Correlation Coefficient R
other term for R
Pearson Product Moment Correlation
Who developed Pearson Product Correlation?
Carl Pearson
Equation of r
r= (n(Σxy)-(Σx)(Σy))
____________________________________
(√[n[(Σx^2 )-(∑x)^2][n(Σy^2 )-(Σy)^2])
Correlation ranges from
-1 to 1 only
0.00 to +/- 0.19
No correlation exist
+/-0.20 to +/- 0.39
Slight correlation exist
+/- 0.40 to +/- 0.59
Substantial correlation exist
+/- 0.60 to +/- 0.79
Significant correlation exist
+/- 0.80 to +/- 0.99
Very significant correlation exist
+/- 1
Perfect correlation exist
to estimate roughly the relationship existing between two variables, by drawing a straight line intersecting as many points as possible in the graph.

the rate of revenues received for every dollar on invested in an item or activity
ROI
An instrument that signifies ownership in a corporation and represents a claim on a share of a corporation’s assets and profits. Typically riskier and long-term investments.
Stock
An instrument that signifies ownership in a corporation and represents claim on a share of a corporation’s assets and profits. Stocks are typically riskier and long-term investments. Low risk
Bonds
State law requires corporations pay bond payments on time, a given priority over other financial obligations
Corporate Bonds
Very safe, high quality
Government Bonds
Tax-free on interest for federal returns!!
Lower interest rates, but good overall returns due to tax-exempt status
Municipal Bonds
Are open-ended investments that are professionally managed and consist of a variety of investment instruments including stocks, bonds, options, commodities, and money market securities. Long gterm.
Mutual Funds
A piece of land and any buildings or structures on it. Real estate is a long-term investment.
Real estate
The cost of credit on a yearly basis as a percentage rate.
Annual Percentage Rate (APR)
A form of security to help guarantee that a creditor will be repaid.
Collateral
A legal agreement to receive cash, goods, or services now and pay for them in the future.
Credit
The 3 C’s of Credit:
- Capacity
- Capital
- Character
A type of interest that is paid only on the original amount deposit
and not on past interest paid.
Simple Interest
Simple Interest
I = Prt
A = P+I = P(1 + rt)
Time of Simple interest
T = I/PR
Principal
P = I/RT
Rate
R = I/PT
Interest on Interest
Compounding Interest
Compounding Interest Formula
F=P*(1+i)^n
- n is number of years
Compounding Interest Time Formula
t = Log10 (A/P)
————————
n Log10 (1+ r/n)
method of paying a loan (principal and interest) on installment basis, usually of equal amounts at regular intervals
Amortization Method
a loan, secured by collateral, that the borrower is obliged to pay at specified terms
Mortgage
Find the mortgage
down payment = (down payment rate) (cash price)
mortgage amount/amount of loan
= (cash price) - (down payment)
Alternate solution for mortgage
mortgage amount = % of financed amount x value of the property
= (.100 - %) (value of property)
a system of arithmetic for integers, where numbers “wrap around” upon reaching a certain value—the modulus (plural moduli)
modular arithmetic
Who developed the modular arithmetic?
Carl Friedrich Gauss
Properties of modular arithmetic
[(a mod n) + (b mod n)] mod n = (a + b) mod n
[(a mod n) - (b mod n)] mod n = (a - b) mod n
[(a mod n) x (b mod n)] mod n = (a x b) mod n
Examples
- 11 mod 8 = 3; 15 mod 8 = 7
[(11 mod 8 ) + (15 mod 8)] mod 8 = 10 mod 8 = 2
(11 + 15) mod 8 = 26 mod 8 = 2 - [(11 mod 8 ) - (15 mod 8)] mod 8 = -4 mod 8 = 4
(11 - 15) mod 8 = -4 mod 8 = 4 - [(11 mod 8 ) x (15 mod 8)] mod 8= 165 mod 8 = 5
(11 x 15) mod 8 = 165 mod 8 = 5
How to solve for mod
Ex: 3 mod 7
= 3/7 = 0.4285
= .4285 x 7 (get only the decimals)
in a stage of an algortithm
Ex: 39*15 mod 11
39 mod 11 = 6 and 15 mod 11 = 4
6x4 mod 11 = 24 mod 11
(repeat until the least value)
the study of methods for sending secret messages
Cryptography
to convert the ciphertext back into plaintext
decryption
a message, called plaintext, is converted into a form, called ciphertext
encryption
an algorithm for performing encryption or decryption— a series of well-defined steps that can be followed as a procedure
Cipher
encryption or decryption using Caesar Cipher
C = (M+ shift) mod 26
encrypt = +
decrypt = -

An inequality is like an equation, but instead of an equal sign (=) it has one of these signs:
< : less than
≤ : less than or equal to
> : greater than
≥ : greater than or equal to
Graphing rules:
