Water flows into a tank at a rate (in gallons per hour) that is 8 1+t times the volume of water in the tank at time t. Water flows out of the tank at a rate of 28 gallons per hour. Determine a formula for V (t), the volume of water in the tank at time t, assuming V (0) = 11 gallons.

A tank contains 24 gallons of water when all of a sudden the water begins draining at a constant rate of 2 gallons per hour. Let t represent the number of hours since the water began draining and let v represent the volume of water in the tank. Required: a. Write a formula that expresses v in terms of t. b. As t increases from 3 to 6, v varies from _________ to _________

The rate at which water flows into a tank, in gallons per hour, is given by a differentiable, increasing function R of time t. The table below gives the rate as measured at various times in an 8-hour time period. t (hours) 0 2 3 7 8 R(t) (gallons per hour) 1.95 2.5 2.8 4 4.26 The rate of water flow R(t) can be estimated by W(t) = ln(t^2 + 7). Use W(t) to approximate the average rate of water flow during the 8-hour time period. Indicate units of measure.
