7. A tank initially contains 60 gallons of brine in which there is dissolved 8 lbs. of salt. Brine
containing 2 Ilbs. of dissolved salt per gallon flows into the tank at the rate of 5 gal/min.
The mixture is kept uniform by stirring, and the stirred mixture simultaneously flows out
at the slower rate of 3 gal/min. How much salt is in the tank at any time t>0?
8. A 120-goallon tank initially contains 80 lbs. of salt dissolve in 90 gal of water. Brine
containing 2lbs/gal of salt flows into the tank at the rate of 5 gal/min, and the mixture
flows out of the tank at the rate of 4 gal/min. If the tank is full after 40 minutes, how
much salt does the tank contain?
