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.

The HCP prescribes methotrexate 7.5 mg PO weekly, in 3 divides doses for a child with rheumatoid arthritis whose body surface ar

dexar [7]

Answer:

1.5mg

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we are told that the HCP prescribed 7.5 mg of PO weekly

The therapeutic dosage is given in the question as 5 - 15 mg/m² weekly.

The child's body surface area is given = 0.6m²

The mg of PO that the nurse should administer in each of the three doses given weekly is calculated as

7.5mg/ 5mg/m²

= 1.5 mg of PO

What will happen to the size of the population in the long run?

Irina-Kira [14]

I'm assuming there's a chart, but if there isn't,

The population will continue to increase and decrease, as the population will grow until it's reached its carrying capacity, and then decrease because there aren't enough resources, and then increase, then decrease, etc.

What is the equation of the line passing through the points (4, -7.5) and (6, -3.5) in slope-intercept form?

Ratling [72]

Answer:

Your answer will be

y=2x-15.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, there you must know the slope-intercept form which is

y=mx+b

m=slope

b=y-intercept

You can also use

the slope formula which is

$\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

in this case

it will look like this

$\frac{-7.5-(-3.5)}{6-4}$ = $\frac{-4}{2}$ =-2

So the slope is -2

Now we will find the y-intercept

-7.5=2(4)+b

-7.5=8+b Subtract 8 both sides

-15.5=b

Your y-intercept is -15.5

Hope this helps
