Some people say that all students have a learning curve. For example you retain more information at 8AM than at 2PM. In fact, this learning curve could have an exponential function as its mathematical model. Suppose you retain 45% of the information you encounter at 8AM, you retain 32% at 11AM and you never retain less than 15%
a. Find exponential function that would approximate this data.
b. According to this model, at what time will you retain 25% of teh information you encounter.

感謝 rex 大大 相救 但是題目說不能低於 15% 那如何是好 ? 感覺上這種曲線應該比較像 sine wave 24 小時循環 而不是 exponential function. 是嗎 ? 有請 天助 大大 提供高見

回 天助 大大 本題是 美國高中 Algebra 2 的老師給的 Final review. 他們只教到 exp. function 所以我也很困惑 也許是老師想耍學生好玩 感謝指導 !
