A tank initially holds 80 gal of a brine solution containing 1/8 lb of salt per gallon. At t=0, another brine solution containing 1 lb of salt per gallon of solution is poured into the tank at the rate of 4 gal/min, while well-stirred mixture leaves the tank at the rate of 8 gal/min. Determine when the tank will be empty.
