Question 1
Suppose a tank contains 600 gallons of salt water. If pure water flows into the tank at
the rate of 7 gallons per minute and the mixture flows out at the rate of 3 gallons per
minute, how many pounds of salt will remain in the tank after 21 minutes if 30 pounds
of salt are in the mixture initially? (Give your answer correct to at least three decimal
places.)
Warning!
Only round your final answer according to the problem requirements. Be sure to
keep as much precision as possible for the intermediate numbers. If you round
the intermediate numbers, the accumulated rounding error might make your
final answer wrong. (This is true in general, not just in this problem.)
