A large tank is filled to capacity with 600 gallons of pure water. Brine containing 5 pounds of salt per gallon is pumped into the tank at a rate of 6 gal/min. The well-mixed solution is pumped out at a rate of 12 gallons/min. Find the number A(t) of pounds of salt in the tank at time t. A(t)

Salt flows into the tank at a rate of

(5 lb/gal) * (6 gal/min) = 30 lb/min

The volume of solution in the tank after t min is

600 gal + (6 gal/min - 12 gal/min)*(t min) = 600 - 6t gal

which means salt flows out at a rate of

(A(t)/(600 - 6t) lb/gal) * (12 gal/min) = 2 A(t)/(100 - t) lb/min

Then the net rate of change of the salt content is modeled by the linear differential equation,

Solve for A:

Multiply both sides by the integrating factor, :

Integrate both sides:

The tank starts with no salt, so A(0) = 0 lb. This means

and the particular solution to the ODE is

well we know there are 4 clubs in 52 cards so it’s replaced so it should be 3/51
