Mrs Wall usually buys 12 pints of milk each week and pays her milkman £3.72. One week she had visitors and ordered an extra 3 pi

ziro4ka [17]

Answer:

£4.65 is her bill

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we firstly need to calculate the unit price of a pint

Mathematically, in this case, that will be 3.72/12 = 0.31

ordering 3 extra pints means she would be buying a total 15

The price of this will be;

0.31 * 15 = £4.65

A tank initially contains 60 gallons of brine, with 30 pounds of salt in solution. Pure water runs into the tank at 3 gallons pe

adoni [48]

Answer:

the amount of time until 23 pounds of salt remain in the tank is 0.088 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

The variation of the concentration of salt can be expressed as:

$\frac{dC}{dt}=Ci*Qi-Co*Qo$

being

C1: the concentration of salt in the inflow

Qi: the flow entering the tank

C2: the concentration leaving the tank (the same concentration that is in every part of the tank at that moment)

Qo: the flow going out of the tank.

With no salt in the inflow (C1=0), the equation can be reduced to

$\frac{dC}{dt}=-Co*Qo$

Rearranging the equation, it becomes

$\frac{dC}{C}=-Qo*dt$

Integrating both sides

$\int\frac{dC}{C}=\int-Qo*dt\\ln(\abs{C})+x1=-Qo*t+x2\\ln(\abs{C})=-Qo*t+x\\C=exp^{-Qo*t+x}$

It is known that the concentration at t=0 is 30 pounds in 60 gallons, so C(0) is 0.5 pounds/gallon.

$C(0)=exp^{-Qo*0+x}=0.5\\exp^{x} =0.5\\x=ln(0.5)=-0.693\\$

The final equation for the concentration of salt at any given time is

$C=exp^{-3*t-0.693}$

To answer how long it will be until there are 23 pounds of salt in the tank, we can use the last equation:

$C=exp^{-3*t-0.693}\\(23/60)=exp^{-3*t-0.693}\\ln(23/60)=-3*t-0.693\\t=-\frac{ln(23/60)+0.693}{3}=-\frac{-0.959+0.693}{3}= -\frac{-0.266}{3}=0.088$
