- A tank contains 1300 L of pure water. The solution that contains 0.01 Kg of sugar per liter enters the tank at the rate of 7L/min. and is thoroughly mixed into it. The new solution drains out of the tank at the same rate. (a) How much sugar is in the tank at the beginning? y(0)= to( Kg (b) Find the amount of sugar after t minutes. y(t) = (kg) (c) As t becomes large what value is y(t) approaching? in other words, calculate the following limit lim t-oo y(t)= (kg)arrow_forward1e. Use L'Hospital Rule to find the limit: lim(1 + 4x)3/x x->0 NO HAND WRITTEN ANSWERS ACCEPTED!!!arrow_forwardB. Calculate each of the following limits, or explain why it does not converge. You may use any theorems that were stated in lecture.iv. limx → 1+ |x-1| / (x-1)arrow_forward
