the equation starts like thisMay 2006 p3 Q5. i don't get how they got the 250 part

i - okay first notice that the question gave you the base area( m^2) and the rate of flow in m^3 so when making the formula you divide 30 by 1000 to get the rate of increase in height

so now you have dh/dt =0.03 -k square root h
put h =1 and dh/dt = 0.02
0.02 = o.o3 - k ( square root of 1 is 1)
k = 0.03 -0.02 = 0.01
so now the equation is
dh/dt =0.03 - 0.01 square root h
by taking 0.01 as a common factor
dh/dt= 0.01 (3- square root h)
ii- this part is integration , u have the equation
( x-3 ) dx/dt =0.005 x ( divide both sides by o.oo5 x and put the integration sign)
(x- 3)/ 0.005x dx= dt ( you multiply both sides by dt)
separate the left side
x/ 0.005 x - 3/0.005x dx = dt
200 -600/x dx = dt ( now u can integrate)
200x - 600 ln (x) = t +c
put x=3 , t= 0
600 - 600 ln(3) = c
thus t = 200x - 600 ln (x) - 600+ 600 ln (3)
t= 200x + 600 ln (3/x) - 600 ( u can take 200 as common factor )
t = 200 (x + 3 ln (3/x) -3)
iii- here there's a trick , notice the question said the height of water is 4 m
so u go back to the equation x= 3- square root h and put h =4
then u get x = 3- 2 = 1
put this x in the equation obtained in part (ii)
t= 200 (1 + 3 ln(3/1) - 3)
t= 259.2 seconds
you're welcomethank you so much!!! really helped
How to solve this, 2-3x < |x-3|? The answer should be x > -1/2 only..

how did u get it.... plz xplainNvm I got it. Thanks
Thank you so much.Really helped a lot.The square root is not that terrible. It is just used to compensate certain squares.
Also to solve this question I think you need to master the trigonometric identities.

y = A (x^n), natural log each side to getThank you so much.Really helped a lot.
Could you also please explain the second question of the same paper?
I did the first step,that is,simplifying it with logarithm but then substituting the values using the graph and then solving it led to many errors.Have seen a similar question in p2 and so I will bother you with some p2 questions as well.
