Initially, 50 pounds of salt are dissolved in a large tank holding 300 gallons of water. A brine solution with a concentration o

f 2 pounds per gallon is pumped into the tank at a rate of 3 gallons per minute, and the well-stirred solution is then pumped out at the same rate. Write a differential equation to model this problem, and use it to determine a function describing the amount of salt in the tank at any given time. How much salt will be in the tank if this process is allowed to continue for an infinite amount of time

Answer:

dA / dt = 6 - A (t) / 100

600

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to:

dA / dt = In - Out

Input = input salt concentration * input rate of brine

replacing

Inlet = 2 lb / gal * 3 gal / min = 6 lb / min

there is no build up because the inlet flow equals the outlet, so there are 300 gallons in the tank at the start

Output: salt concentration at the output * output rate of brine

replacing

Output: A (t) / 300 * 3 gal / min = A (t) / 100

Thus:

dA / dt = 6 - A (t) / 100

this would be the differential equation.

now, when time tends to infinity, we would be left with:

100 * dA / dt = 600 - A (t)

When t tends to infinity, A (t) tends to 0, therefore, the amount of salt would be 600.

Adding the student with eight siblings will increase the class average amount of siblings because this student has more siblings than the average.

Therefore, the average number of siblings that each student has is larger than the original average.
