A tank contains 50 gallons of water in which 2 pounds of salt is dissolved. A brine solution containing 1.5 pounds of salt per g

allon of water is pumped into the tank at the rate of 4 gallons per minute, and the well-stirred mixture is pumped out at the same rate. Let A(t) represent the amount of salt in the tank at time t. Derive the initial value problem for A(t). Also how much salt will there be in the tank after a long period of time?

Answer:

  • A(0) = 2; A'(t) = 6 - 0.08A(t)
  • A(∞) = 75

Step-by-step explanation:

The initial value is said to be 2 pounds, so A(0) = 2.

__

The influx is (1.5 #/gal)×(4 gal/min) = 6.0 #/min.

The outflow is (4 gal)/(50 gal) × A(t) = 0.08A(t).

The rate of change of A(t) is then ...

  A'(t) = 6 - 0.08A(t)

__

When the system reaches steady state, A'(t) = 0, so ...

  0 = 6 - 0.08A(∞)

  A(∞) = 6/0.08 = 75

75 pounds of salt will be in the tank after a long period.

Alinara [238K]

Yes, 5:10 and 2:4 are equivalent.

5:10 (simplified) = 1:2

2:4 (simplified) = 1:2

Hope this helps; have a great day!

A study reveals that 65% of homeowners in Omaha own a lawn mower. To test this claim, you form a sample of 500 homeowners in Oma
kotegsom [21]

Answer:

There is no enough evidence to reject the claim using a level of significance of 5%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let p be the true proportion of homeowners in Omaha who own a lawnmower. We want to test  

H_{0}: p = p_{0} = 0.65 vs H_{1}: p\neq 0.65 (two-tailed alternative).

We have a large sample of size n = 500 and a point estimate for p is \hat{p}=0.68. The test statistic is given by

Z=\frac{\hat{p}-p_{0}}{\sqrt{p_{0}(1-p_{0})/n}}=\frac{0.68-0.65}{\sqrt{0.65(1-0.65)/500}} where \sqrt{0.65(1-0.65)/500} is the standard error of \hat{p} when H_{0} is true. The observed value is z_{0} = 1.4064 which comes from a standard normal distribution. Because we want to use a level of significance of 5%, our rejection region is RR={z | z < -1.96 or z > 1.96} where -1.96 and 1.96 are the 2.5th and 97.5th quantiles respectively. Because 1.4064 does not belong to RR, we fail to reject the null hypothesis.
