In mixing tanks systems, the water comes in at a rate of 4L/min in Tank A. This tank contains 500L solution of brine with 200g of salt is dissolved. The solution is then pumped to Tanks B and C, at 2L/min and X L/min, respectively. Tank B has 400L solution of brine and 1000g dissolved salt. It is then pumped to Tank C with a rate of 4L/min. Tank C has only 400L of plain water only and pumps it back to Tank B at a rate of y L/min. Moreover, z L/min exits the system of Tank C. Considering that the volume of the solutions are constant all throughout, solve for the values of x, y, z
