Answer 7

The table below shows how the number of hours needed to fill a pool depends on the flow rate of the hoses used to fill it.

Flow rate, x
(gal/hr)
Time, y
(hours)
60gal = 300hrs
45gal =400 hrs
36 gal = 500 hrs
30 gal = 600 hrs

How long will it take to fill the pool if two hoses are used, one that fills at a rate of 40 gallons per hour and one that fills at a rate of 60 gallons per hour?
100 hours
150 hours
180 hours
200 hours
Mark this and return
