A large tank is filled to capacity with 700 gallons of pure water. Brine containing 3 pounds of salt per gallon is pumped into t

he tank at a rate of 7 gal/min. The well-mixed solution is pumped out at the same rate. Find the number A(t) of pounds of salt in the tank at time t.

Answer:

The number A(t) of pounds of salt in the tank at time 't' is;

{A(t)}= -2,100 \times e^{\dfrac{-t}{100} } + 2,100

Step-by-step explanation:

In the question, we have;

The volume of pure water initially in the tank = 700 gal

The concentration of brine pumped into the tank = 3 pounds per gallon

The rate at which the brine is pumped into the tank,  = 7 gal/min

The rate at which the well mixed solution is pumped out = The same 7 gal/min

The number of pounds of salt in the tank at time 't' is found as follows;

The rate of change in A(t) with time = The rate of salt input - The rate of salt output

The \ rate \  of  \ change \  in  \ A(t)  \ with \  time = \dfrac{dA}{dt}

The rate of salt input = 7 gal/min × 3 lbs/gal = 21 lbs/min

The rate of salt output = (A(t)/700) lb/gal × 7 gal/min = (A(t)/100) lb/min

Therefore, we have;

\dfrac{dA}{dt} = 21 - \dfrac{A(t)}{100}

Therefore;

\dfrac{dA}{dt} + \dfrac{A(t)}{100}= 21

The integrating factor is e^{\int\limits {\frac{1}{100} } \, dx } = e^{\frac{x}{100} }

e^{\dfrac{t}{100} } \times \dfrac{dA}{dt} + e^{\dfrac{t}{100} } \times\dfrac{A(t)}{100}= e^{\dfrac{t}{100} } \times21

\dfrac{d}{dt} \left[ e^{\dfrac{t}{100} } \times{A(t)}{} \right]= e^{\dfrac{t}{100} } \times21

Using an online tool, we get;

{A(t)}= c_1 \times e^{\dfrac{-t}{100} } + 2,100

At time t = 0, A(t) = 0

We get;

0= c_1 \times e^{\dfrac{-0}{100} } + 2,100

c₁ = -2,100

Therefore, the number A(t) of pounds of salt in the tank at time 't' is given as follows;

{A(t)}= -2,100 \times e^{\dfrac{-t}{100} } + 2,100

If you flipped a fair coin 18 times, about how many times would you expect heads to appear? HELP ME PLEASE!!!!!!!
Andrei [34K]

Answer:

9 or 3.8x10^-6

Step-by-step explanation:

By flipping a coin you'd look at how many times a head could appear (1/2) and multiply that by the 18 times.

Another explanation:

I'm not sure on this but would you raise 1/2 to the 18th power?

Pls work out and give detail. Use the slope formula to determine the slope of each line.
kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

m=0

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

See attachment

Required

Determine the slope of the line

From the attachment, we have the following points

(x_1,y_1) = (-4,1)

and

(x_2,y_2) = (3,1)

The slope m is then calculated using:

m = \frac{y_2- y_1}{x_2 - x_1}

Substitute values for the x's and y's

m = \frac{1-1}{3 - (-4)}

m = \frac{1-1}{3 +4}

m = \frac{0}{7}

m=0

<em>Hence, the slope is 0</em>

Jerry ordered 4 items online. He is charged $2.91 per pound for shipping. The items weighed 4.3 pounds, 2 pounds, 3.8 pounds, an
LiRa [457]

Answer:

46.56 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

4.3 pounds

2 pounds

3.8 pounds, and

5.9 pounds

Let us find the total weight of all the items

=4.3+2+3.8+5.9

=16 pounds

We are told that he is charged $2.91 per pound for shipping

Hence the cost of shipping 16 pounds is

=2.91*16

=46.56 pounds
