Solve with Differential Equation A tank contains 400 liters of brine. Brine containing 0.1 kg/liter of salt flows in at 8 liters/minute, and the mixture kept uniform by stirring, flows out at the rate of 12 liters/minute. If the concentration of the salt is 0.096 kg/liter at the end of 60 – minutes, how much was the initial concentration of the brine in the tank?
