The formula

describes the time, t, in weeks, that it takes to achieve mastery of a portion of a task. In the formula, A represents maximum learning possible, N is the portion of the learning that is to be achieved, and c is a constant used to measure an individual’s learning style. A 50-year-old man decides to start running as a way to maintain good health. He feels that the maximum rate he could ever hope to achieve is 12 miles per hour. How many weeks will it take before the man can run 5 miles per hour if c = 0.06 for this person?
