Assuming that the loss of ability to recall learned material is a first-order process with a halflife of 35 days. Compute the number of days required to forget 90% of the material that you have learned today. Report to 1 decimal place.

Respuesta :

Answer:

5.3 days

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume the loss of ability to recall a learned material = 100%

Formula to calculate number of days = time(t) =

t = t½ × Log½(Nt/No)

Nt = Ending Amount

No = Beginning Amount

t½ = Half life

t = Time elapsed

Therefore, we have the following values from the questions:

Half life (t½)= 35 days

Initial or beginning amount = 100%

Ending amount = 90%

t = t½ × Log½ (Nt/No)

t = 35 × Log ½(90/100)

t = 5.3201082705768 days

Approximately = 5.3 days
