A tank initially contains 100 L of fresh water. Solution 1 is a brine solution containing 3 kg of salt per L and is allowed to enter the tank at a rate of 2 L/min. Solution 2 is a brine solution containing 2 kg of salt per L and is allowed to enter the tank at a rate of 1 L/min. The well-stirred mixture flows out of the tank at the rate of 4 L/min. Determine the amount of salt (in kg) in the tank after one hour.    choices: 99.84 kg 88.94 kg 48.94 kg  48.49 kg
