Your employer automatically puts 5 percent of your salary into a 401(k) retirement account each year. The
account earns 8% interest. Suppose you just got the job, your starting salary is $40000, and you expect to
receive a 2% raise each year.
For simplicity, assume that interest earned and your raises are given as nominal rates and compound
continuously.
Find the value of your retirement account after 30 years

Beginning at time t = 0, cigarette smoke containing 4% CO is introduced into the room at a rate of 0.8 cubic feet per minute. The well-circulated smoke and air mixture is allowed to leave the room at the same rate. Let A(t) represent the amount of CO in the room (in cubic feet) after t minutes.

This can be modeled by the differential equation dT dt k(TA), where T is the temperature of the object after t units of time have passed, A is the ambient temperature of the object's surroundings, and k is a constant of proportionality.
