Need help in solving this problem. Section is under limits at infinity, horizontal asymptotes...

AA tank contains 5000L of pure water. Brine that contains 30g of salt per liter of water is pumped into the tank at a rate of 25L/min. Show that the concentration of salt after t minutes (in grams per liter) is

C(t)+ 30t/200+t

Bwhat happens to the concentration as t--> infinity?

Verified Answer :

(a) you can show the concentration by: 

amount of salt / amount of water 


amount of salt 

= 30g / L 

= [ 30 25g ] / [ 25L ] , 25L = 1 min 

= [ 30
25g ] / min 


amount of water 

= 5000 + 25t 


[ 30 25t ] / [ 5000 + 25t ] 

= [ 30
25t ] / 25[ 200 + t ] 

= 30t / [ 200 + t ] yeah 


(b) 


lim t->∞ [ 30t / ( 200 + t ) ] 

= lim t->∞ [ ( (1 / t)
30t ) / ( (1 / t) * ( 200 + t ) ) ] 

= lim t->∞ [ 30 / ( (200 / t) + 1 ) ] 

= 30 / ( (200 / ∞) + 1 ) 

= 30 / 1 

= 30
