    A company is starting to produce a new product.
    The first unit takes 25 hrs to produce.
    learning rate is 75%
    How long will it take the company to produce an additional 7 units?

    we should ax*b a=25, x=7, then log thing but the answer is wrong can u guide me?

    You should watch the lecture – I go through an almost identical example!!

    Since they have already made 1 unit, an additional 7 will mean that they will have made 8 in total.

    You need to calculate the total time from making 8 units (which will be 8 x the average time given by the formula; or you can find the average time by using the doubling rule) and subtract the time for the first.
