Lines can be used to approximate a wide variety of functions; often a function can be described using many lines.if a stock price goes from $10 to $12 from january 1st to january 31, and from $12 to $9 from february 1st to february 28th, is the price change from $10 to $9 a straight line?how can i use two “pieces” of lines to describe the price movements from the beginning of january to the end of february?

Respuesta :

For this item, the difference between the $10 and $12 is $2 in a span of 15 days. Additionally, there is a change from $12 to $9 (-$3) in a span of 28 days. The change of the values from $10 to #9 is not represented by a single straight line. Rather, by 2 individual, connecting lines.
