Problem 2: Pollution begins to enter a lake at time t=0 at a rate (in gallons per hour) given by
f(t)=10(1-e-0.5t)
where t is the time (in hours). At the same time, the pollution filter begins to remove the pollution at a rate of
g(t)=0.4t
as long as the pollution remains in the lake.
a. How much pollution is in the lake after 12 hours?
b. Find the time when the rate at which the pollution enters the lake equals the rate at which the pollution is removed (use a graphing device to help you! There are two solutions).
