Tanks 1 and 2 contain 50 gallons and 100 gallons of salt solutions. T1 and T2.

 

A solution with 5/2 pounds of salt per gallon is pumped into Tank 1 at 1 gallon per minute. From an external source.

A solution with 7/2 pounds of salt per gallon is pumped into Tank 2 at 2 gallons per minute. From an external source.

 

The solution is then pumped from T1 to T2 at 2 gallons a minute.

The solution is also pumped from T2 to T1 at 3 gallons a minute.

 

T1 is then drained at 1 gallon a minute.

T2 is drained at 2 gallons a minute.

 

Let S1(t) and S2(t) represent the number of pounds of salt respective to t>0

Find the system of equations for Q1 and Q2.

 

The help is appreciated.
