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.
(a) How much salt is in the tank after t minutes? y = kg
(b) How much salt is in the tank after 40 minutes? (Round the answer to one decimal place.) y(40) = kg

Answer:

a) y(t)=0.65\frac{Kg}{min}(tmin)

b) y(40)=26Kg

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

Brine a (Ba)

V_{Ba}=5\frac{Lt}{min}\\  Concentration(Bca)=0.05\frac{Kg}{Lt}

Brine b (Bb)

V_{Bb}=10\frac{Lt}{min}\\  Concentration(Bcb)=0.04\frac{Kg}{Lt}

we have that per every minute the amount of solution that enters the tank is the same as the one that leaves the tank (15 Lt / min)

, then the amount of salt (y) left in the tank after (t) minutes: y=V_{Ba}*B_{ca}+V_{Bb}*B_{cb}=5\frac{Lt}{min}*0.05\frac{Kg}{Lt}+10\frac{Lt}{min}*0.04\frac{Kg}{Lt}=\\0.25\frac{Kg}{min}+0.4\frac{Kg}{min}=0.65\frac{Kg}{min}

Finally:

a) y(t)=0.65\frac{Kg}{min}(tmin)

b) y(40)=0.65\frac{Kg}{min}(40min)=26Kg

being y(t) the amount of salt (y) per unit of time (t)

<span>In 10 repetitions, there was an instance where 3 or more out of 5 free throw missed. So the probability of her missing 3 or more out of 5 free throw is 0/10=0% or 0.0%. I</span>t appears that your answer of 0% is correct given your experiment.

Variable y varies directly with variable x, and y = 45 when x = 9.
Alenkasestr [34]
Direct variation means their ratio is a constant
x/y is 9/45=1/5
so when x=2, y=5*2=10

Complete the inequality. 9% ___ 0.4
Alex73 [517]
9% is less than 0.4. 0.4 is really 4/10 which is 40% 40 is greater than 9 therefore 9% is less than 0.4! So your answer is 9%<0.4! I hope this helped!
