(a) A tank contains 7000 L of pure water. Brine that contains 20 g of sait per liter of water is pumped into the tank at a rate of 25Lmin. Show that the concentration of salt t minutes tater (in grams per liter) is
C(t)=20t280t
After t minutes 25t liters of brine with 20g of salt per liter has been pumped into the tank, so it contains
liters of water and grams of salt. Therefore, the salt concentration at time t will be the following,
C(t)=500t700025t=20t280t2L
(b) What happens to the concentration as t?
limtC(t)=,gL
