A tank like the one pictured above contains 100 gallons of fresh water. At time t = 0, a solution containing 0.1 pounds of sugar per gallon begins to flow into the tank at a rate of 2 gallons per minute, and the well-stirred mixture flows out of the tank at the same rate. 1. How much sugar is in the tank after 10 minutes? Answer: ☐ pounds 2. As t∞, what is the limiting value of the amount of t→ sugar in the tank? Answer: ☐ pounds
