A 100 gal-tank initially contains 50 gal of fresh water. At t = 0, a salt solution containing 1 Ib of salt per gallon is poured into the tank at the rate of 5 gal/min, while the well-stirred mixture leaves the tank at the rate of 3 gal/min. Find (a) the amount of time required for overflow to occur and (b) the amount of salt in the tank at the moment of overflow.
