Good day Sir I am getting 58% not sure how bpp got the 78%
165 – The total time for the first 16 batches of 100 units was 9,000 hours. What was the actual learning rate closest to (to the nearest %)
BPP Solution
9000=16 x 1,500 r4
9,000/(16 x 1,500)=r4
r=0.78 or 78%My solution 1500+9000=10,500/2=5250
5250/9000*100=58%November 27, 2016 at 6:06 pm #351943You need to watch my free lectures on learning curves!!
The learning curve doubling rule applies to the average time per batch, and the average time per batch when they make 16 batches is 9,000/16 as per the BPP answer.
November 27, 2016 at 6:15 pm #351956I did watched the lecture but still not getting the answer as bpp.
November 27, 2016 at 7:04 pm #351968Hi Sir I got the answer thank you much.
November 27, 2016 at 7:11 pm #3519709000=16 x (1500 x r4)
562.5=1500 x r4
0.375 = r4
0.78 or 78%November 28, 2016 at 6:17 am #352049That is correct 🙂
