In a previous exercise we formulated a model for learning in the form of the differential equation dp dt = k(m − p) where p(t) m

easures the performance of someone learning a skill after a training time t, m is the maximum level of performance, and k is a positive constant. solve this differential equation to find an expression for p(t). (use p for p(t). assume that p(0) = 0.) incorrect: your answer is incorrect.

I assume you mean

   \dfrac{dP}{dt} = k(M-P)

ANSWER
An expression for P(t) is

   
P = M - Me^{-kt}

EXPLANATION
This is a separable differential equation. Treat M and k as constants. Then we can divide both sides by M - P to get the P term with the differential dP and multiply both sides by dt to separate dt from the P terms

   \begin{aligned} \dfrac{dP}{dt} &= k(M-P) \\ \dfrac{dP}{M-P} &= k\, dt
\end{aligned}

Integrate both sides of the equation.

   \begin{aligned}
\int \dfrac{dP}{M-P} &= \int k\, dt \\
-\ln|M-P| &= kt + C \\
\ln|M-P| &= -kt - C\end{aligned}

Note that for the left-hand side, u-substitution gives us 

   u = M - P \implies  du = -1dP \implies dP = -du

hence why \int \frac{dP}{M-P} \ne \ln|M - P|

Now we use the definition of the logarithm to convert into exponential form.

The definition is 

   \ln(a) = b \iff \log_e(a) = b \iff e^b = a

so applying it here, we get

   \begin{aligned} \ln|M-P| &= -kt - C \\ |M - P| &= e^{-kt - C} \\ 
M - P &= \pm e^{-kt - C} 
 \end{aligned}

Exponent properties can be used to address the constant C. We use x^{a} \cdot x^{b} = x^{a+b} here:

   \begin{aligned}
 M - P &= \pm e^{-kt - C} \\
M - P &= \pm e^{- C - kt} \\ 
M - P &= \pm e^{- C + (- kt)} \\ 
M - P &= \pm e^{- C} \cdot e^{- kt} \\ 
M - P &= Ke^{- kt} && (\text{\footnotesize Let $K = \pm e^{-kt}$ }) \\ 
M &= Ke^{- kt} + P\\
P &= M - Ke^{- kt}
\end{aligned}

If we assume that P(0) = 0, then set t = 0 and P = 0

   \begin{aligned} 
0 &= M - Ke^{- k\cdot 0} \\
0 &= M - K \cdot 1 \\
M &= K
 \end{aligned}


Substituting into our original equation, we get our final answer of

   P = M - Me^{-kt}

Hi there!

\dfrac{dP}{dt} = k(M-P)

⇒ \dfrac{dP}{M-P} = k

\textbf{Integrate\: both \:sides\: of\: th'\: Eqn.} :-

\int \dfrac{dP}{M-P} = \int kdt

⇒ \ln|M-P| = kt + C

⇒ \ln|M-P| = -kt - C

Since,
u = M - P \implies du = -1dP \implies dP = -du

∴ \int \frac{dP}{M-P} \ne \ln|M - P|

\textbf{Applying\: definition \:of\: logarithm} :-

\ln|M-P| = -kt - C

⇒ |M - P| = e^{-kt - C}

⇒ M - P = \pm e^{-kt - C}

\textbf{Further solving} :-

⇒ M - P = \pm e^{-kt - C}

⇒ M - P = \pm e^{- C - kt}

⇒ M - P = \pm e^{- C + (- kt)}

⇒M - P = \pm e^{- C} × e^{- kt}

⇒ M - P = Ke^{- kt}

⇒ M = Ke^{- kt} + P

⇒ P = M - Ke^{- kt}

\textbf{Let \:P(0) \:= \:0, \:then \:set\: t\: =\: 0\: and\: P \:= \:0} :-

0 = M - Ke^{- k × 0}

⇒ 0 = M - K × 1

⇒ M = K

Substitute th' following value in Original Eq :-

\boxed{P = M - Me^{-kt}}

DanielleElmas [232]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

the options A and B are the ones that make sense

to get rid of one of the options, you have to substitute.

lets try 6

5+ 3.5(6)= 5+21= 26

3+ 4(6)= 3+24 = 27

What is the expansion of (3+x)^4
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

\left(3+x\right)^4:\quad x^4+12x^3+54x^2+108x+81

Step-by-step explanation:

Considering the expression

\left(3+x\right)^4

Lets determine the expansion of the expression

\left(3+x\right)^4

\mathrm{Apply\:binomial\:theorem}:\quad \left(a+b\right)^n=\sum _{i=0}^n\binom{n}{i}a^{\left(n-i\right)}b^i

a=3,\:\:b=x

=\sum _{i=0}^4\binom{4}{i}\cdot \:3^{\left(4-i\right)}x^i

Expanding summation

\binom{n}{i}=\frac{n!}{i!\left(n-i\right)!}

i=0\quad :\quad \frac{4!}{0!\left(4-0\right)!}3^4x^0

i=1\quad :\quad \frac{4!}{1!\left(4-1\right)!}3^3x^1

i=2\quad :\quad \frac{4!}{2!\left(4-2\right)!}3^2x^2

i=3\quad :\quad \frac{4!}{3!\left(4-3\right)!}3^1x^3

i=4\quad :\quad \frac{4!}{4!\left(4-4\right)!}3^0x^4

=\frac{4!}{0!\left(4-0\right)!}\cdot \:3^4x^0+\frac{4!}{1!\left(4-1\right)!}\cdot \:3^3x^1+\frac{4!}{2!\left(4-2\right)!}\cdot \:3^2x^2+\frac{4!}{3!\left(4-3\right)!}\cdot \:3^1x^3+\frac{4!}{4!\left(4-4\right)!}\cdot \:3^0x^4

=\frac{4!}{0!\left(4-0\right)!}\cdot \:3^4x^0+\frac{4!}{1!\left(4-1\right)!}\cdot \:3^3x^1+\frac{4!}{2!\left(4-2\right)!}\cdot \:3^2x^2+\frac{4!}{3!\left(4-3\right)!}\cdot \:3^1x^3+\frac{4!}{4!\left(4-4\right)!}\cdot \:3^0x^4

as

\frac{4!}{0!\left(4-0\right)!}\cdot \:\:3^4x^0:\:\:\:\:\:\:81

\frac{4!}{1!\left(4-1\right)!}\cdot \:3^3x^1:\quad 108x

\frac{4!}{2!\left(4-2\right)!}\cdot \:3^2x^2:\quad 54x^2

\frac{4!}{3!\left(4-3\right)!}\cdot \:3^1x^3:\quad 12x^3

\frac{4!}{4!\left(4-4\right)!}\cdot \:3^0x^4:\quad x^4

so equation becomes

=81+108x+54x^2+12x^3+x^4

=x^4+12x^3+54x^2+108x+81

Therefore,

  • \left(3+x\right)^4:\quad x^4+12x^3+54x^2+108x+81

It takes 32 minutes for 8 people to paint 8 walls. How many minutes does it take 12 people to paint 12 walls ? Confused !
Radda [10]

Answer:

It takes 32 Minutes for 12 people to paint 12 walls

Step-by-step explanation:

If it takes 8 people 32 minutes to paint 8 walls, then that means each person takes 32 minutes to paint 1 wall. With that being said, If you have 12 people painting 12 walls, It will take 32 minutes for all 12 walls to be painted.

Hope this helps!
