A tank initially contains 100 gal of water in which is dissolved 2 lb of salt. The salt-water solution containing 1lb of salt for every 4 gal of solution enters the tank at a rate of 5 gal/min. The solution leaves the tank at the same rate allowing for a constant solution volume in the tank. Determine the eventual salt content (lbs) in the tank.

A seamless brass tube and brass flange assembly is shown. The tube is pressed fit into the full 1.250-inch plate thickness. The brass used weighs 0.305 pound per cubic inch. Find the total weight of the assembly. Round the answer to the nearest tenth pound.
A container holds 200 gallons of brine solution containing 50lb of salt. Initially, fresh water is poured into the tank at a rate of 10 gal/min, while the well-stirred mixture leaves the tank at the same rate. What is the amount of salt in the tank after 5 minutes?
A large tank is partially filled with 400 L of fluid in which 5 kg of salt is dissolved. Brine containing 0.25 kg per liter is pumped into the tank at a rate of 20 L/min. The well-mixed solution is then pumped out at a slower rate of 15 L/min. Find the number of pounds of salt in the tank after 30 minutes.
A tank holds 300 gal of brine solution with 50 pounds of dissolved salt. A brine solution containing 2 lbsalt/gal is pumped into the tank at a rate of 3 gal/min and the solution inside the tank is also the pumped out at the same rate, estimate the amount of the salt dissolved in the tank after a long time.
A tank has a total capacity of 100 L, but initially it contains 15 L of pure water. Water flows into the tank 8 L per minute and contains 2 kg of salt. The solution in the tank is being mixed well. If the well-mixed solution in the tank exits 7 L per minute, determine the amount of salt (kilograms) in the solution just before the tank overflows.
A 131 L mixing tank initially contains 65 L of brine solution with a concentration of 7 g/L. Brine solution with a concentration of 9 g/L flows into the tank at a rate of 7 L/min. The solution inside the tank is kept well-stirred and is discharged at the rate of 3 L/min. Determine the amount of salt, in grams, inside the tank at the moment before it overflows.
A 60 gallon (gal) tank initially contains 45 lb of sugar dissolved in 45 gal of water. Brine containing 1 lb/gal flows into the tank at the rate of 4 gal/min and the well stirred mixture flows out of the tank at the rate 3 gal/ min how much sugar does the tank contain when it is full
Suppose that a large mixing tank initially holds 300 gallons of water in which 50 pounds of salt have been dissolved. Pure water is pumped into the tank at a rate of 3 gal/min, and when the solution is well-stirred, it is then pumped out at the same rate. Determine the amount of salt in the tank after 1 hour.
A 131 L mixing tank initially contains 58 L of brine solution with 310 g of dissolved salt. Brine solution with a concentration of 8 g/L flows into the tank at a rate of 7 L/min. The solution inside the tank is kept well-stirred and is discharged at the rate of 4 L/min. Determine the concentration of the solution, in grams/liter, inside the tank at the moment before it overflows.
A tank contains 200 liters of fluid in which 30 grams of salt is dissolved. Brine containing 2 grams of salt per liter is then pumped into the tank at the rate of 4 liters per minute and the well-mixed solution is pumped out at the same rate. How many grams of salt are there in the tank after 230 minutes?
A patient's blood is traveling at a rate of 16 mL/sec while conveying a medicine into the liver and leaves in a similar rate. The liver can occupy liquid volume of 204 mL. The medicine concentration in the blood entering the liver is 0.5 g/mL, When will the concentration of the medicine in the liver reach 0.4 g/mL?
A large mixing tank currently contains 300 gallons of water, into which 8 pounds of sugar have been mixed. A tap will pouring 20 gallons of water per minute into the tank at the same time sugar is poured into the tank at a rate of 2 pounds per minute. Find the concentration pounds per gallons of sugar in the tank after 10 minutes?
