Express 1/(x(1-3x)) in partial fractions.

1/(x(1-3x))= A/x+ B/(1-3x) 1= A(1-3x) + B(1-3x)

when x=0    1=A

when x= 1/3     1=B/3 so B=3

1/(x(1-3x))= 1/x + 3/(1-3x)

At t seconds, the temp. of the water is θ°C. The rate of increase of the temp. of the water at any time t is modelled by the D.E. dθ/dt=λ(120-θ), θ<=100 where λ is a pos. const. Given θ=20 at t=0, solve this D.E. to show that θ=120-100e^(-λt)
