A tank initially contains 100 gal of pure water. Starting at time t = 0, a brine containing 6lb of dissolved salt per gallon flows into the tank at the rate of 8gal/min is kept uniform by stirring and the well-stirred mixture simultaneously flows out of the tank at a slower rate of 4gal/min. 1. How much salt is in the tank at the end of 20 min? 2. When is there 50 lb of salt in the tank?
