Learning Thoery In a learning theory project, the proportion P of correct responses after n trials can be modeled by p = 0.83/(1

elena-s [515]

Answer:

a) $P(n=3) = \frac{0.83}{1+e^{-0.2(3)}}= \frac{0.83}{1+ e^{-0.6}} = 0.536$

b) $P(n=7) = \frac{0.83}{1+e^{-0.2(7)}}= \frac{0.83}{1+ e^{-1.4}} = 0.666$

c) $0.75 =\frac{0.83}{1+e^{-0.2n}}$

$1+ e^{-0.2n} = \frac{0.83}{0.75}= \frac{83}{75}$

$e^{-0.2n} = \frac{83}{75}-1= \frac{8}{75}$

$ln e^{-0.2n} = ln (\frac{8}{75})$

$-0.2 n = ln(\frac{8}{75})$

And then if we solve for t we got:

$n = \frac{ln(\frac{8}{75})}{-0.2} = 11.19 trials$

d) If we find the limit when n tend to infinity for the function we have this:

$lim_{n \to \infty} \frac{0.83}{1+e^{-0.2t}} = 0.83$

So then the number of correct responses have a limit and is 0.83 as n increases without bound.

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we have the following expression for the proportion of correct responses after n trials:

$P(n) = \frac{0.83}{1+e^{-0.2t}}$

Part a

For this case we just need to replace the value of n=3 in order to see what we got:

$P(n=3) = \frac{0.83}{1+e^{-0.2(3)}}= \frac{0.83}{1+ e^{-0.6}} = 0.536$

So the number of correct reponses after 3 trials is approximately 0.536.

Part b

For this case we just need to replace the value of n=7 in order to see what we got:

$P(n=7) = \frac{0.83}{1+e^{-0.2(7)}}= \frac{0.83}{1+ e^{-1.4}} = 0.666$

So the number of correct responses after 7 weeks is approximately 0.666.

Part c

For this case we want to solve the following equation:

$0.75 =\frac{0.83}{1+e^{-0.2n}}$

And we can rewrite this expression like this:

$1+ e^{-0.2n} = \frac{0.83}{0.75}= \frac{83}{75}$

$e^{-0.2n} = \frac{83}{75}-1= \frac{8}{75}$

Now we can apply natural log on both sides and we got:

$ln e^{-0.2n} = ln (\frac{8}{75})$

$-0.2 n = ln(\frac{8}{75})$

And then if we solve for t we got:

$n = \frac{ln(\frac{8}{75})}{-0.2} = 11.19 trials$

And we can see this on the plot attached.

Part d

If we find the limit when n tend to infinity for the function we have this:

$lim_{n \to \infty} \frac{0.83}{1+e^{-0.2t}} = 0.83$

So then the number of correct responses have a limit and is 0.83 as n increases without bound.

what is the distance between point S and U? Round to the nearest tenth of a unit? A 3.3 B 6.4 C 8.1 D 12.0

ki77a [65]

The distance between the points (d) is found using the Pythagorean theorem.

Imagine the two points as defining the hypotenuse of a right triangle. The lengths of the legs of the triangle are the horizontal distance between the points and the vertical distance between the points. The the theorem tells us
d² = 4² + 7²
d² = 16 + 49
d² = 65
d = √65 ≈ 8.1

The distance between the points is
C 8.1

_____
You know that the distance must be longer than the longest leg (7) and must be shorter than the sum of the two legs (4+7=11). The only answer choice between 7 and 11 is 8.1.

Check the picture below. Recall, is an open-top box, so, the top is not part of the surface area, of the 300 cm². Also, recall, the base is a square, thus, length = width = x.

$\bf \textit{volume of a rectangular prism}\\\\
V=lwh\quad 
\begin{cases}
l = length\\
w=width\\
h=height\\
-----\\
w=l=x
\end{cases}\implies V=xxh\implies \boxed{V=x^2h}\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
\textit{surface area}\\\\
S=4xh+x^2\implies 300=4xh+x^2\implies \cfrac{300-x^2}{4x}=h
\\\\\\
\boxed{\cfrac{75}{x}-\cfrac{x}{4}=h}\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
V=x^2\left( \cfrac{75}{x}-\cfrac{x}{4} \right)\implies V(x)=75x-\cfrac{1}{4}x^3$

so.. that'd be the V(x) for such box, now, where is the maximum point at?

$\bf V(x)=75x-\cfrac{1}{4}x^3\implies \cfrac{dV}{dx}=75-\cfrac{3}{4}x^2\implies 0=75-\cfrac{3}{4}x^2
\\\\\\
\cfrac{3}{4}x^2=75\implies 3x^2=300\implies x^2=\cfrac{300}{3}\implies x^2=100
\\\\\\
x=\pm10\impliedby \textit{is a length unit, so we can dismiss -10}\qquad \boxed{x=10}$

now, let's check if it's a maximum point at 10, by doing a first-derivative test on it. Check the second picture below.

so, the volume will then be at $\bf V(10)=75(10)-\cfrac{1}{4}(10)^3\implies V(10)=500 \ cm^3$
