A tank contains 1000 L of pure water. Brine that contains 0.05 kg of salt per liter of water enters the tank at a rate of 5 L/mi

n. Brine that contains 0.04 kg of salt per liter of water enters the tank at a rate of 10 L/min. The solution is kept thoroughly mixed and drains from the tank at a rate of 15 L/min. How much salt is in the tank (a) after minutes and (b) after one hour?

(a) after t minutes

If y(t) is the amount of salt (in kg) after t minutes, then y(0) = 0 \ (pure\ water) and the total amount of liquid in the tank remains constant at 1000 L.

\displaystyle \frac{dy}{dt} \\ = \left( 0.05 \frac{\text{kg}}{\text{L}} \right) \left( 5 \frac{\text{L}}{\text{min}} \right)  + \left( 0.04 \frac{\text{kg}}{\text{L}} \right)\left( 10 \frac{\text{L}}{\text{min}} \right) - \left( \frac{y(t)}{1000} \frac{\text{kg}}{\text{L}} \right)\left( 15\frac{\text{L}}{\text{min}} \right) \\ \\ 
= 0.25 + 0.40 - 0.015y = 0.65 - 0.015 y = \frac{130 - 3y}{200} \frac{\text{kg}}{\text{min}}

\text{Hence, } \displaystyle \int \frac{dy}{130 - 3y} = \int\frac{dt}{200}

and -\frac{1}{3}\ln|130 - 3y| = \frac{1}{200}t + C.

Because y(0) = 0, we have -\frac{1}{3} \ln 130 = C

so

-\frac{1}{3}\ln|130 - 3y| = \frac{1}{200}t -\frac{1}{3} \ln 130\ \Rightarrow \\ \\\ \ln|130 - 3y| = -\frac{3}{200}t + \ln 130 \ \Rightarrow \\ \\  |130 - 3y| = e^{-3t/200 + \ln 130}  \ \Rightarrow \\ \\
|130 - 3y| = 130e^{-3t/200}

Since y is continuous, y(0) = 0, and the right-hand side is never zero, we deduce that 130 - 3y is always positive.

Thus, 130 - y = 130e^{-3t/200} and
y = \frac{130}{3}\left( 1 - e^{-3t/200}\right) \text{ kg}

(b)

After one hour,

y = \frac{130}{3}\left( 1 - e^{-3 \cdot 60/200}\right) = \frac{130}{3}(1 - e^{-0.9} ) \approx 25.7 \text{ kg}

PLS HELPPPP equation of the line that is parallel to the line y − 3x = 4 and passes through the point (0, −3)
Volgvan

Answer:

y = 3x - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Given

y - 3x = 4 ( add 3x to both sides )

y = 3x + 4 ← in slope- intercept form

with slope m = 3

Parallel lines have equal slopes, thus

y = 3x + c

The line crosses the y- axis at (0, - 3 ) ⇒ c = - 3

y = 3x - 3 ← equation in slope- intercept form

What is the smallest and largest natural number​
Vladimir [108]

The smallest natural number is 1. The largest natural number does not exists because there will always be one even larger. But if you are asking the number of all natural numbers or the size of natural number set then \aleph_0 is your answer.
