In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: In order to calculate the CAGR, first you need to define the period of time for which you want to do the calculation.  Next, you need to know the beginning value of an investment.  Then, find out the ending value of the investment for the time period. Divide the ending value by the beginning value.  Then raise the result to the power of 1 divided by the number of years in the time period.  Finally, subtract 1 from the result. Raising a value to an exponent is done on a calculator by entering the first value, pressing the exponent button (usually represented as xy{\displaystyle x^{y}}), then entering the exponent value and pressing enter. Alternately, you can type the expression into Google using the "^" symbol between the base number and exponent. The search engine will solve it for you. In the example above, the period was three years, from 2012 to 2015.  The beginning value was $10,000.  The ending value was $19,500.  Use the following formula: CAGR=((endingvalue/beginningvalue)1numberofyears)−1{\displaystyle CAGR=((endingvalue/beginningvalue)^{\frac {1}{numberofyears}})-1}  Using the above formula, CAGR=(($19,500/$10,000)13)−1{\displaystyle CAGR=((\$19,500/\$10,000)^{\frac {1}{3}})-1}  This equals (1.950.333)−1{\displaystyle (1.95^{0.333})-1}  This then equals 1.2493−1{\displaystyle 1.2493-1}  Which solves to 0.2493, or 24.93 percent.
Summary: Gather the information. Calculate CAGR with a mathematical formula. Learn with an example.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: When you’re just starting out, you’ll likely have to do work for free to beef up your resume and make connections. Turn to community organizations, hospitals, and sporting events, like marathons, that have international participants and see if you can just help out on the translating side. It's a necessary part of starting out in this career. Odds are you probably know someone who works in an industry that deals with many different types of people with many different linguistic backgrounds. Ask everyone you know if they could use some free help. Why would they turn you down? Though certification isn’t 100% necessary, it will make it much easier to get jobs. Employers look at your background and see this certification and trust you have the skills to do the job. You’ll also be listed on the website of the organization you go through, where potential clients can find you. There are several varieties to consider:  The American Translator’s Association offers generalized certification programs for translators.  If you want to be a judicial or medical translator, organizations such as the National Association of Judiciary Interpreters and Translators and the International Medical Interpreters Association offer specialized certifications in this area.  Check if your state or area has an accreditation programs for translators and interpreters. Take a language proficiency test such as the Defense Language Proficiency Test (DLPT) to show potential clients that you are indeed fluent in your specific language. Similar to an accreditation or certification, showing your test results to prospective employers is a quick way for them to assess your skills and see that you'll be good for the job. The American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Languages offers many proficiency tests, too. You can find plenty of tests online offered by other countries, as well.
Summary: Take volunteer opportunities. Get certified. Get tested.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: You can sing songs together, count bath toys, or see who can blow the most bubbles—whatever types of activities will entertain the toddler so that they don’t mind taking a bath. Use your imagination to get them involved and excited about bath time.  You can also use bath time as storytime, letting the toddler pick out a book or two they want read to them while they’re taking a bath. Play music while they’re in the bath, or ask the toddler to help you come up with a bathtime song. Get your toddler used to interacting with water by testing out some water activities outside of the bathroom—likely outdoors. You can encourage them to play in the sprinklers, sit in a kiddie pool, scoop water into cups from a bowl, or even just use a hose to water the plants. There are tons of bath toys available that help turn bathtime into a fun activity. Choose bath toys that won’t be damaged by water, such as rubber ducks, boats, animals, or squirt toys.  When bathtime is over, let the toys dry out so they don’t grow any sort of mold or mildew. You can purchase bath toy letters or waterproof books, allowing your toddler to work on their phonics while in the tub. Bath toys such as basketball hoops and fishing games help improve hand-eye coordination while taking a bath too. There are lots of different art supplies available for bathtime, such as bath paints, markers, crayons, and foams. Your toddler can draw on themselves or the tub’s walls to have fun while bathing, and it all washes off once bath time is over. There are also bath dyes that will turn the water a different color (but they don’t stain the tub or the toddler). This will help the toddler keep their head tilted back while you wash and rinse their hair, keeping all of the soap out of their eyes. You can tape a picture, attach stars, or hang a mobile from the ceiling to capture their attention. If your child is wary about the water, try to make the water engaging by adding bubbles. Your child will have fun playing in the bubble bath while you scrub them clean. Make sure to get bubble bath that will not irritate your toddler’s skin or eyes. If you don’t have bubble bath, you can create bubbles by pouring soap into a stream of running water. You most likely won’t win a battle with a toddler who is at the height of enjoying their playtime if you start telling them it's bathtime. Instead, create a routine for your toddler so that they develop an understanding of when bathtime will occur.  Stick to this schedule and have bathtime at the same time each day. For example, your toddler’s routine could involve playing outside, eating dinner, and then taking a bath. If you need to change the routine, explain the reasoning to your child.
Summary:
Turn taking a bath into a game. Try out water games outside of the bathtub. Use bath toys to make taking a bath fun. Buy bath paint or crayons for an artsy bathtime. Hang a picture or similar attention-grabber on the ceiling. Distract your child with bubbles. Set a routine to get your toddler excited for bath time.
