Question
A tank initially contains 17 pounds of salt dissolved in 450 gallons of water. Starting at to = 0, water that contains 2/5 pounds of salt per gallon is poured into the tank at a
rate of 10 gallons per minute and the mixture is drained from the tank at the exact same rate. Assume the tank is uniformly mixed at all times. Use this information to
answer the following questions.
a) Find a differential equation for the quantity of salt in the tank at time t > 0
b) Solve the differential equation from part (a) to find Q (t)
