    Calculus
    Section 2.6

    We have come to the end of Section 2.6 before moving on to derivatives and rates of change. As you know, I like to end each section by posting a few proofs and/or problems that I just don't know how to solve. I don't understand how to do part (a). See my work for part (b).

    part a.

    salt after t minutes = 30*25*t
    water after t minutes = 5000+25t
    compute concentration= C(t)= (30*25*t)/(5000+25t)

    C(t)=(30*25*t)/(5000+25t).........simplify
    =(30*25*t)/(25(200+t))
    =(30t)/(200+t)-> proven

    part b. correct

    Part (a) is not so bad. I just didn't know what to do.
