: The concentration C = C(t) of chlorine in the tank t hours after flushing begins is given by C=0.1+2.78e to the -0.37t mpg.
-what is the initial concentration of chlorine in the tank?
-express the concentration of chlorine in the tank after 3 hours.
ps - i need to know how to work the problem specifically.
Thanks This question is from textbook functions and change
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Okay, the function we are working with is
C(t) = 0.1 + 2.78e^(-0.37t)
The initial concentration is when t = 0, so
C(0) = 0.1 + 2.78e^0 = 2.88
After three hours, t = 3, so we have
C(3) = 0.1 + 2.78e^(-0.37*3) and we use our calculator to get
C(3) = .916 mpg
