Suppose that a large mixing tank initially holds 500 gallons of water in which 50 pounds of salt have been dissolved. Another brine solution is pumped into the tank at a rate of 3 gal/min, and when the solution is well stirred, it is then pumped out at a slower rate of 2 gal/min. If the concentration of the solution entering is 2 lb/gal, determine a differential equation (in lb/min) for the amount of salt A(t) (in lb) in the...

Question: An ATM can only dispense bills of the following denominations: $500, $100, $50, $10, $5, and $1 When a user withdraws an amount from the ATM, the machine tries to dispense the amount using the least number of bills possible. For instance, if the user requests $1234, the ATM dispenses 2 bills of $500 + 2 bills of $100 + 3 bills of $10 + 4 bills of $1. On the other hand, if the user requests $1235, the...
