A tank contains 225 L of water. A solution with a salt concentration of 0.4 kg/L is added at a rate of 5 L/min. The solution is kept mixed and is drained from the tank at a rate of 3 L/min. If y(t) is the amount of salt (in kilograms) after t minutes, show that y satisfies the differential equation dy dt = 2 − 3y 225 + 2t. Solve this equation and find the concentration after 20 minutes. (Round your answer to four decimal places.)
