Mary decreaser time in the mile walk from 30 minutes to 24 minutes what is the percent decrease

1 answer:

3 0

There was a 20% decrease. To find the decrease, subtract the old number from the new number. (30-24=6) Then divide the decrease (6) by the original number and multiply the answer by 100. (6/30=0.2 0.2*100=20).

Suppose a tank contains 400 gallons of salt water. If pure water flows into the tank at the rate of 7 gallons per minute and the

Strike441 [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a differential equation problem most easily solved with an exponential decay equation of the form

$y=Ce^{kt}$ . We know that the initial amount of salt in the tank is 28 pounds, so

C = 28. Now we just need to find k.

The concentration of salt changes as the pure water flows in and the salt water flows out. So the change in concentration, where y is the concentration of salt in the tank, is $\frac{dy}{dt}$ . Thus, the change in the concentration of salt is found in

$\frac{dy}{dt}=$ inflow of salt - outflow of salt

Pure water, what is flowing into the tank, has no salt in it at all; and since we don't know how much salt is leaving (our unknown, basically), the outflow at 3 gal/min is 3 times the amount of salt leaving out of the 400 gallons of salt water at time t:

$3(\frac{y}{400})$
