A recipe calls for a gallon of salt water solution containing 5 ounces of a salt. In your 5 gallon container, you accidentally create a solution with twice that concentration. Suppose you can pour pure water into your container at a rate of 1 gallon per minute while draining it at the same rate. How long will you have to do this to bring your container to the correct concentration? (You may use a calculator to round your answer to one decimal place).
I got 3.5 min. Is this correct?

2. A tank contains 100 gallons of pure water. Beginning at t O, a salt water solution containing 0.2 pounds of salt per gallon is pumped into the tank at a rate of 3 gallons per minute. At the same time, a drain is opened at the bottom of the tank which allows the mixture to leave the tank at a rate 3 gallons per minute. Assume the solution is kept perfectly mixed. (a) What will be concentration of salt...
A tank originally contains 100 gallons of fresh water. Water containing lb of salt per gallon is poured into the tank at a rate of 2 gallons per minute, and the mixture is allowed to leave at the same rate. After 10 minutes the salt water solution flowing into the tank suddenly switches to fresh water flowing in at a rate of 2 gallons per minute, while the solution continues to leave the tank at the same rate (a) Write...

3) A 200-gallon tank is half-filled with pure water. Subsequently, a salt-water solution of 3 pounds per gallon enters the tank at 2 gallons per minute. Simul- taneously, the well-stirred solution leaves the tank at 6 gallons per minute. a) Write an initial value problem (IVP) that models this process. b) Solve your IVP. c) Over what time frame is the solution of your IVP valid? Explain. d) When is the amount of salt in the tank maximized? Give the...
A tank with capacity of 700 gal of water originally contains 300 gal of water with 50 lb of salt in solution Water containing 1 lb of salt per gallon is entering at a rate of 4 gal/min, and the mixture is allowed to flow out of the tank at a rate of 2 gal/min. Let Q(t) (in pounds) be the amount of salt in the tank and V(t) (in gallons) be the volume of water in the tank. a) Find...
2. A tank initially contains 100 gallons of salt solution in which 20 pounds of salt is dissolved. Starting at time 0, a solution containing 3 pounds of salt per gallon flows into the tank at a rate of 4 gallons per minute. The mixture is kept uniform by stirring and the well-mixed solution simultancously flows out of the tank at the same rate. Determine the amount of salt in the tank after 10 minutes, when the amount of salt...
A tank contains 70 kg of salt and 2000 L of water. Water containing 0.4kg/L of salt enters the tank at the rate 16L/min. The solution is mixed and drains from the tank at the rate 4L/min. A(t) is the amount of salt in the tank at time t measured in kilograms. (a) A(0) = (kg) (b) A differential equation for the amount of salt in the tank is =0=0. (Use t,A, A', A'', for your variables, not A(t), and move everything...
-2t A tank initially contains 10 liters of water and 5 grams of salt. Salt water containing 3+ e grams of salt per liter is pumped into the tank at a rate of 2 liters per minute. The solution of salt water is instantaneously, perfectly mixed and then pumped out at a rate of 2 liters per minute. Determine when, to three decimal places, the concentration of the salt leaving the tank is within 0.01 grams/liter of the salt entering...
*1.5.36 A tank initially contains 90 gal of pure water. Brine containing 4 lb of salt per gallon enters the tank at 2 gal/min, and the (perfectly mixed) solution leaves the tank at 3 gal/min. Thus, the tank is empty after exactly 1.5 h. (a) Find the amount of salt in the tank after t minutes. (b) What is the maximum amount of salt ever in the tank? (a) The amount of salt x in the tank after t minutes...
