A tank originally contains 120 liters of water with 5 grams of salt in solution. Beginning at t=0, water containing 0.4 grams of salt per liter flows into the tank at a rate of 2 liters per minute and the uniform mixture drains from the tank at a rate of 2 liters per minute. Letting t be time in minutes and Q be the amount of salt in the tank at time t measured in grams, formulate an initial value problem modeling the amount of salt in the tank at any time.
1) dQ/dt = ____
2) Q(0)= _____
3) Find the solution of the initial value problem Q(t)= _______
