Question
A tank contains 50 gallons of a solution composed of 85% water and 15% alcohol. A second solution containing half water and half alcohol is added to the tank at the rate of 4 gallons per minutes. At the same time, the tank is being drained at the same rate. Assuming that the solution is stirred constantly, how much alcohol will be in tank after 10minutes?
