A 50-gal tank initially contains 20 gal of pure water. Saltwater solution containing 0.5 lb of salt for each gallon of water begins entering the tank at a rate of 4 gal/min. Simultaneously, a drain is opened at the bottom of the tank, allowing the salt-water solution to leave the tank at a rate of 2 gal/min. What is the salt content (lb) in the tank at the precise moment that the tank is full of salt-water solution?
