Given information

As per the given question ,

  •   is the maximum capable level of performance.
  •   is constant 
  •   is reasonable model for learning

Step-by-step explanation

Step 1.

We have   be the performance of someone learning a skill as function of the training time  and the derivative  represents the rate at which performance improves.

 

Referring to the differential equation 

   a positive constant

 

 be the maximum level of performance of which the learner is capable

From this differential equation see that  always and if the level of performance  is increasing and approaching   then  approaches zero

That is, level of performance level off.

Therefore, the model is appropriate with the answer in part (a)

Therefore,

The given differential equation is reasonable model for learning.
