Question
A model for learning is described by the differential equation
 
dP
dt
 = k(M − P),
where P(t) measures the performance of someone learning a skill after a training time tM is the maximum level of performance, and k is a positive constant. Solve this differential equation to find an expression for 
P(t).
 (Use P for P(t). Assume that 
P(0) = 0.)
 
 
 
What is the limit of this expression as t increases without bound?
lim t → ∞ P(t) =
