- Question from Calculus II: Solve the following initial value problem for y as a funtion of x: x dy/dx = sqrt(x^2-25), x>=5 y(5)=3arrow_forwardA mixing tank A 500-liter (L) tank is filled with pure water. Attime t = 0, a salt solution begins flowing into the tank at a rate of5 L/min. At the same time, the (fully mixed) solution flows outof the tank at a rate of 5.5 L/min. The mass of salt in grams in thetank at any time t Ú 0 is given byM(t) = 250(1000 - t)(1 - 10-30(1000 - t)10)and the volume of solution in the tank is given byV(t) = 500 - 0.5t.a. Graph the mass function and verify that M(0) = 0.b. Graph the volume function and verify that the tank is emptywhen t = 1000 min.c. The concentration of the salt solution in the tank (in g/L) isgiven by C(t) = M(t)>V(t). Graph the concentration functionand comment on its properties. Specifically, what are C(0)and lim t-S1000- C(t)?d. Find the rate of change of the mass M′(t), for 0 <, t < 1000.e. Find the rate of change of the concentration C′(t), for0 < t < 1000.f. For what times is the concentration of the solution increasing?Decreasing?arrow_forwardPollution begins to enter a lake at time t = 0 at a rate ( in gallons per hour ) given by the formula f ( t ) , where t is the time ( in hours ). At the same time, a pollution filter begins to remove the pollution at a rate g ( t ) as long as the pollution remains in the lake. f ( t ) = 11 ( 1 − e − 0.5t ) , g ( t ) = 0.5t How much pollution is in the lake after 13 hours, in gallons, rounded to the nearest hundredth?arrow_forward
