Find a common denominator between the two
1/6 - 2/12
1/4 - 3/12
3/12 - 2/12 because 2/12 is what you started with
= 1/12
If 1/12 is 8 litres, it’s 8 x 12 = 96
The tank can hold 96 litres.
At the start, the tank contains
(0.02 g/L) * (1000 L) = 20 g
of chlorine. Let <em>c</em> (<em>t</em> ) denote the amount of chlorine (in grams) in the tank at time <em>t </em>.
Pure water is pumped into the tank, so no chlorine is flowing into it, but is flowing out at a rate of
(<em>c</em> (<em>t</em> )/(1000 + (10 - 25)<em>t</em> ) g/L) * (25 L/s) = 5<em>c</em> (<em>t</em> ) /(200 - 3<em>t</em> ) g/s
In case it's unclear why this is the case:
The amount of liquid in the tank at the start is 1000 L. If water is pumped in at a rate of 10 L/s, then after <em>t</em> s there will be (1000 + 10<em>t</em> ) L of liquid in the tank. But we're also removing 25 L from the tank per second, so there is a net "gain" of 10 - 25 = -15 L of liquid each second. So the volume of liquid in the tank at time <em>t</em> is (1000 - 15<em>t </em>) L. Then the concentration of chlorine per unit volume is <em>c</em> (<em>t</em> ) divided by this volume.
So the amount of chlorine in the tank changes according to

which is a linear equation. Move the non-derivative term to the left, then multiply both sides by the integrating factor 1/(200 - 5<em>t</em> )^(5/3), then integrate both sides to solve for <em>c</em> (<em>t</em> ):


![\dfrac{\mathrm d}{\mathrm dt}\left[\dfrac{c(t)}{(200-3t)^{5/3}}\right]=0](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cdfrac%7B%5Cmathrm%20d%7D%7B%5Cmathrm%20dt%7D%5Cleft%5B%5Cdfrac%7Bc%28t%29%7D%7B%28200-3t%29%5E%7B5%2F3%7D%7D%5Cright%5D%3D0)


There are 20 g of chlorine at the start, so <em>c</em> (0) = 20. Use this to solve for <em>C</em> :

![\implies\boxed{c(t)=\dfrac1{200}\sqrt[3]{\dfrac{(200-3t)^5}5}}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cimplies%5Cboxed%7Bc%28t%29%3D%5Cdfrac1%7B200%7D%5Csqrt%5B3%5D%7B%5Cdfrac%7B%28200-3t%29%5E5%7D5%7D%7D)

Step-by-step explanation:
Hope this helped have an amazing day!
Hi Cherise1cherhop lets break this equation down with these steps:
1) add the whole numbers first
2) find the LCD of the fractions and that would be 42 since 42 can go into both denominators through multiplication
3) make the denominators (bottom numbers) the same as the LCD (42)
4) simplify it, now the denominators are equal
5) join the denominators together
6) simplify it (3 + 65/42)
7) convert 65/42 to mixed fraction
8) now that we made it a mixed fraction, simplify it
Answer: 4 23/42
