In the formula approach to learning curve calculations, T_N = T₁ (N^b). For a problem with an 88 percent learning curve, what is b? A) −0.184 B) 0.184 C) 0.88 D) −0.88 E) −0.120

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The formula for the learning curve is given by Y = X^b, where Y is the cost of the nth unit, X is the number of units, and b is the learning curve coefficient. The learning curve percentage is related to b by the formula b = log(learning percentage) / log(2). For an 88 percent learning curve, b = log(0.88) / log(2) = -0.184.
