| What is are compound inequalities? | They are two inequalities joined by the word AND or the word OR.ex: x > 4 and x 6 |
| What is a compound interest? | It is interest paid on both the principal and the interest earned in previous interest periods.ex: (see formula used for balance) 500(1 + 0.05)6 (the six is an exponent), or $670.05 The compound interest is $670.05 - 500 or $170.05 |
