13. A tank of 100 gallons capacity is initially full of water. Pure water is allowed to run
into the tank at the rate of 1 gallon per minute. At the same time brine containing
0.25 lb of salt flows into the tank at the same rate. The mixture flows out at the
rate of 2 gallons per minute. Assuming a perfect mixing, find the amount of salt in
the tank after t’ minutes.

15. A tank of 100 gallons capacity is initially full of water. Pure water is allowed to run
into the tank at the rate of 1 gallon per minute. At the same time brine containing
0.25 lb of salt flows into the tank at the same rate. The mixture flows out at the
rate of 2 gallons per minute. Assuming a perfect mixing, find the amount of salt in
the tank after ‘t’ minutes.
