Answer: $2,614.16

Step-by-step explanation:

Initially, he has $1077.

We know that this has a fixed annual interest rate of 9% compounded three times per year.

(remember that 9% is 0.09 in decimal form)

Then in one year, this interest is compounded in 3 times.

So we actually apply 0.09/3 3 times.

So if in year zero, Ted has $1077.

after 1 year, Ted will have:

M = $1077*(1 + 0.09/3)^3

Where the power of 3 is because this interest rate is applied 3 times.

Now, after another year Ted will have:

M = $1077*(1 + 0.09/3)^3*(1 + 0.09/3)^3 = $1077*(1 + 0.09/3)^(2*3)

We already can see the pattern here, after N years,

M(N) = $1077*(1 + 0.09/3)^(3*N)

The account balance after 10 years can be computed by evaluating the above equation in N = 10.

M(10) = $1077*(1 + 0.09/3)^(3*10) = $2,614.16

In the theory of learning, the rate at which a subject is memorized is assumed to be proportional to the amount that is left to
fiasKO [112]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the statement:

M: is total to be memorized

A(t): the amount memorized.

The key issue is translate this statement as equation "rate at which a subject is memorized is assumed to be proportional to the amount that is left to be memorized"

memorizing rate is \frac{dA(t)}{dt}.

the amount that is left to be memorized can be expressed as the total minus the amount memorized, that is M-A(t).

So we can write

\frac{dA(t)}{dt}=k(M-A(t))

And that would be the differential equation for A(t).
