Answer:

y = -3x + 41

Step-by-step explanation:

All you need to do is expand everything and solve for y.

y- 5 = -3(x - 12)

y - 5 = -3x + 36

y = -3x + 41

I hope this helped!

What is 1/8 - 7/8 ? ( its a fraction)

kap26 [50]

Answer:

1/8-7/8= -3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

1/8-7/8 is just like 7/8-1/8 but is the opposite

7/8-1/8=6/8 or 3/4

1/8+6/8=7/8

1/8-1/8=0

0-6/8= -6/8 or -3/4

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:

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