A tank has inflow, outflow and stirring mechanism. Initially, the tank holds 500 L of a brine solution of concentration 200 g/L. At
, an inflow of another brine solution of concentration 100 g/L starts entering the tank at the rate of 15 L/minute. At the same time the outflow of thoroughly stirred mixture also takes place at the same rate so that the volume of brine in the tank remains constant. The brine concentration
(g/L) in the tank at any time
(minute) can be expressed by the following differential equation
The brine concentration in the tank at
