2 6. Modelling. Suppose that we have two tanks (A and B) between which a mixture of brine flows. Tank A contains 200 liters of water in which 50 kilograms of salt has been dissolved and Tank B contains 100 liters of pure water. Water containing 1kg of salt per liter is pumped into Tank A at the rate of 5 liters per minute. Brine mixture is pumped into Tank A from Tank B at the rate of 3 liters per minute and brine mixture is pumped from Tank A into Tank B at the rate of 8 liters per minute. Brine is drained from Tank B at a rate of 5 liters per minute. (a) Draw and carefully label a picture of the situation, including both tanks and the flow of brine between them.
