Here is the complete question
1. State coordinates of x axis
2. State coordinates of y axis
3. State the slope
4. Graph the function
5. Is learning rate increasing or decreasing?
Answer:
1. (50,0)
2. (0,20)
3. Slope = -0.4
4. Check attachment for graph
5. Learning rate is decreasing
Step-by-step explanation:
1.
L(x) = 20-0.4x
20 = 0.4x
x = 20/0.4
x = 50
(50,0)
2
For y coordinate;
L(0) = 20-0.4(0)
= 20
(0,20)
3.
Slope,
Y = -0.4x+20
We compare with
Y = mx+c
m = -0.4
Intercept c = 20
4. Check attachment
5. The slope is negative at m = -0.4 therefore the rate of learning is on a decline. As number of words learnt increases, learning rate falls.
