Homework for Wednesday, November 29

Assignment: Coffee Prices Part 2 - Link!
You will notice some similarities and some differences between this worksheet and the one we did in class. The main difference, of course, is that this table gives you the amount of the increase or decrease, NOT the price of the coffee per pound. You will have to figure out the actual price each month to graph.
*This is an accumulative total; do not go back to the original $3.10 every time, keep building on (or taking away from) the price each month.
*Please start your graph at $3.10 and recognize that you will dip below the month in July when you subtract the first loss. Don't worry, you'll pop back up in August and be fine for the rest of the graph.
*You do not "need" to draw in the mean line, but you will draw the line of best fit. You may draw in the other line if you want to compare the two though. ;-) 
Get used to thinking about those negative values and how they work in the big picture ... the concept is much easier than the equations themselves, but the better you understand how they work, the easier they will be.
