Consider the point where the hexagons meet the positive half of the y axis.
The inner hexagon meets the axis at 
, whereas the outer hexagon meets the axis at 
So, we're looking for a dilation constant 
such that
So, solving by k we have
Answer:
A(t) = 300 -260e^(-t/50)
Step-by-step explanation:
The rate of change of A(t) is ...
A'(t) = 6 -6/300·A(t)
Rewriting, we have ...
A'(t) +(1/50)A(t) = 6
This has solution ...
A(t) = p + qe^-(t/50)
We need to find the values of p and q. Using the differential equation, we ahve ...
A'(t) = -q/50e^-(t/50) = 6 - (p +qe^-(t/50))/50
0 = 6 -p/50
p = 300
From the initial condition, ...
A(0) = 300 +q = 40
q = -260
So, the complete solution is ...
A(t) = 300 -260e^(-t/50)

The salt in the tank increases in exponentially decaying fashion from 40 grams to 300 grams with a time constant of 50 minutes.
The median is 79. Hope this helps!
