Math Problem Statement
A large brine tank containing a solution of salt and water is being diluted with fresh water. The relationship between the elapsed time, [t], in hours, after the dilution begins, and the concentration of salt in the tank, [S(t)], in grams per liter [(\text{g/l})], is modeled by the following function. [ S(t)=500\cdot e^{{-0.25t}}] What will the concentration of salt be after [10] hours? Round your answer, if necessary, to the nearest hundredth.
