Percentage

A percentage is a number indicated as a fraction of 100. It is a dimensionless number often expressed using the symbol %.

Algebraic Expressions

In mathematics, an algebraic expression consists of constant(s), variable(s), and mathematical operators. It is made up of terms.

Numbers

Numbers are some measures used for counting. They can be compared one with another to know its position in the number line and determine which one is greater or lesser than the other.

Subtraction

Before we begin to understand the subtraction of algebraic expressions, we need to list out a few things that form the basis of algebra.

2. A tank with a capacity of 650 gal. originally contains 200 gal of water with 100 lb. of salt in solution. Water containing 1 lb. of salt per gallon is entering at a rate of 4 gal/min, and the mixture is allowed to flow out of the tank at a rate of 3 gal/min. a. Find the amount of salt in the tank at any time prior to the instant when the tank begins to overflow (650 gallons). b. Find the concentration (in pounds per gallon) of salt in the tank when the tank hits 400 gallons. D.E. for mixture problems: dv dt=11-12 dA A(t) dt
