A 500 gallon water tank is filled with pure water. It gets brine
(water with salt) that has 2lb of salt per gallon at a rate of 5
gal/min. The well-mixed solution leaves the tank at the same rate.
The outlet of tank A enters directly into a second tank (B) with a
volume of 250 gallons of pure water. The new well-mixed solution of
the B tank comes out at a rate of 3 gal/min. Determine how many
pounds of salt are in each tank at time t. Solve using
differential equations, function of tank A is A(t) and function of
tank B is modeled by B(t)

216 salt/gal 5 gal /min do do 5 gal/min 3 gal/min. > A VA= 500 gal H2O B Vg = 250 gal H20
