(1 point) A fish tank initially contains 15 liters of pure water. Brine of constant, but unknown, concentration of salt is flowi

ng in at 5 liters per minute. The solution is mixed well and drained at 5 liters per minute. a. Let x be the amount of salt, in grams, in the fish tank after t minutes have elapsed. Find a formula for the rate of change in the amount of salt, dx/dt, in terms of the amount of salt in the solution x and the unknown concentration of incoming brine c. dx grams/minute b. Find a formula for the amount of salt, in grams, after t minutes have elapsed. Your answer should be in terms of c and t. x(t)= grams c. In 10 minutes there are 25 grams of salt in the fish tank. What is the concentration of salt in the incoming brine? C = g/L

Answer:

a. \dfrac{dx}{dt} = 6\frac{2}{3} \cdot c

b. x(t) = 6\frac{2}{3} \cdot c \cdot t

c. c  = \dfrac{3}{8}  \ g/L

Step-by-step explanation:

a. The volume of water initially in the fish tank = 15 liters

The volume of brine added per minute = 5 liters per minute

The rate at which the mixture is drained = 5 liters per minute

The amount of salt in the fish tank after t minutes = x

Where the volume of water with x grams of salt = 15 liters

dx =  (5·c - 5·c/3)×dt = 20/3·c = 6\frac{2}{3} \cdot c \cdot dt

\dfrac{dx}{dt} = 6\frac{2}{3} \cdot c

b. The amount of salt, x after t minutes is given by the relation

\dfrac{dx}{dt} = 6\frac{2}{3} \cdot c

dx = 6\frac{2}{3} \cdot c \cdot dt

x(t) = \int\limits \, dx  = \int\limits \left ( 6\frac{2}{3} \cdot c \right) \cdot dt

x(t) = 6\frac{2}{3} \cdot c \cdot t

c. Given that in 10 minutes, the amount of salt in the tank = 25 grams, and the volume is 15 liters, we have;

x(10) = 25 \ grams(15 \ in \ liters) = 6\frac{2}{3} \times c \times 10

6\frac{2}{3} \times c  =\dfrac{25 \ grams }{10}

c  =\dfrac{25 \ g/L }{10 \times 6\frac{2}{3} }  = \dfrac{25 \ g/L}{10 \times \dfrac{20}{3} } =\dfrac{3}{200} \times 25 \ g/L= \dfrac{75}{200}  \ g/L = \dfrac{3}{8}  \ g/L

c  = \dfrac{3}{8}  \ g/L

Suki split five dog treats equally among her six dogs. Which fraction represents this division.
anzhelika [568]
5 treats divided by six groups of one dog, or in easier terms, five dog treats divided up for 6 dogs. As a fraction, just remove the words except for 5, divided by, and 6, to give you 5/6. Hope this helped.

Which of the following functions is graphed below?
pishuonlain [190]
Answer: B

The piece wise functions first part says: x is less than it equal to one and has a vertical shift down 4. which would mean the circle is closed and shaded down.

The second part of the function says x is greater than one and has a vertical shift up 3. This would mean it is an open circle and is shaded up.

How are fractions and decimals related?
Savatey [412]
Fractions and decimals are related in a very close way. Ways such as they are both representing a whole number. 

for example 

1/2 , 0.5 , 50% 

all three numbers have the same value but are expressed in a different format. all three represent the same whole number. 

another example would be

1/4 , 0.25 , 25% 

hopefully this helped. and or makes sense. 

LET ME KNOW :p
