Equations and Inequations
Equations and inequalities describe the relationship between two mathematical expressions.
Linear Functions
A linear function can just be a constant, or it can be the constant multiplied with the variable like x or y. If the variables are of the form, x2, x1/2 or y2 it is not linear. The exponent over the variables should always be 1.

from now is given by solving (9.5) for P, given V: the present value is
P = Ve-rT.
(9.6)
The formulae (9.5) and (9.6) assume a constant interest rate r. Also, we have
yet considered the continuous-discounting analogue of finding the present value of an
income stream, which we did for annual discounting in Section 5.3. So there is a lo
more to be said on this topic, but that will have to wait until Chapter 19.
