This omission is easy to remedy because the essential ideas ofinvestment growth resulting from compounded investment earnings can be explained with asimple first-order differential equation.

(1995) to gather students’ responses onthe importance of those factors in the selection of their academic majors. The students wereasked to rank each factor for its importance in the selection of their academic major by using ascale of 1 to 5 where 1 = the factor was not at all important while 5 = the factor was extremelyimportant to them. Two hundred and ninety-two usable responses were obtained from thesurvey. Out of those who responded, one hundred and eighty-four students were Businessmajors, while one hundred and eight students were Engineering Technology majors.
