If the population of the animals decreases by about 21% of its current population, it means that the population next year is only 1 - 0.21 or 0.79 of its current population. Thus, the multiplier for the rate of the exponential decay is 0.79.

Answer:

0.79

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that a population of 430 animals decreases at an annual rate of 21%. We are asked to find the multiplier for the rate of exponential decay.

We know that an exponential decay function is in form y=a\cdot (1-r)^x, where,

a = Initial value,

r = Decay rate in decimal form.

Let us convert 21% in decimal form as:

21\%=\frac{21}{100}=0.21

Upon substituting our given values, we will get:

y=430\cdot (1-0.21)^x

y=430\cdot (0.79)^x

Therefore, the multiplier for the rate of exponential decay is 0.79.

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).
