A tank initially holds 200 gal of brine solution containing 3 lb of salt. At t=0, another brine solution containing 3 lb of salt per gallon is poured into the tank at the rate of 6 gal / min, while the well stirred mixture leaves the tank at the same rate. Find the time at which the mixture in the tank contains 6 lb of salt. (A) 0.216 min (B) 0.168 min 0.325 min (D) 0.762
