For more than 75 years the Flexfast Rubber Company in Massachusetts discharged toxic toluene solvents into the ground at a rate of 5 tons per year. Each year approximately \(10 \%\) of the accumulated pollutants evaporated into the air. If \(y(t)\) is the total accumulation of pollution in the ground after \(t\) years, then \(y\) satisfies $$ y^{\prime}=5-0.1 y \quad \text { (Do you see why?) } $$ \(y(0)=0 \quad\) (initial accumulation zero) Solve this differential equation and initial condition to find a formula for the accumulated pollutant after \(t\) years.
A cell receives nutrients through its surface, and its surface area is proportional to the two-thirds power of its weight. Therefore, if \(w(t)\) is the cell's weight at time \(t\), then \(w(t)\) satisfies \(w^{\prime}=a w^{2 / 3}\), where \(a\) is a positive constant. Solve this differential equation with the initial condition \(w(0)=1\) (initial weight 1 unit).
For each exercise: a. Solve without using a graphing calculator. b. Verify your answer to part (a) using a graphing calculator. A company begins advertising a new product and finds that after weeks the product is gaining customer recognition at the rate of \(t^{2} \ln t\) thousand customers per week (for \(t \geq 1\) ). Find the total gain in recognition from the end of week 1 to the end of week 6 .
Evaluate each definite integral using integration by parts. (Leave answers in exact form.) $$ \int_{0}^{2} x e^{x} d x $$
For each exercise: a. Solve without using a graphing calculator. b. Verify your answer to part (a) using a graphing calculator. A drug taken orally is absorbed into the bloodstream at the rate of \(t e^{-0.5 t}\) milligrams per hour, where \(t\) is the number of hours since the drug was taken. Find the total amount of the drug absorbed during the first 5 hours.
