SOLUTION: Suppose that water is pumped into an initially empty tank and the rate of water flow into the tank at time t (in seconds) is 50-t liters (L) per second. How much water flows into t

Question 624221: Suppose that water is pumped into an initially empty tank and the rate of water flow into the tank at time t (in seconds) is 50-t liters (L) per second. How much water flows into the tank during the first 30 seconds?

The rate of flow is liters/sec
( liters/sec ) x ( sec ) = liters
After seconds, there are
liters in the tank
After 30 seconds,

After 30 sec, there is 45,000 liters in the tank
