New pump:
5 hours = 1 pool
1 hour = 1/5 pool

Old pump:
15h = 1 pool
1h = 1/15 pool

If both work together
1h = 1/5 + 1/15 = 4/15 pool

4/15 pool = 1 hour
1/15 pool = 1/4 hour
15/15 pool = 1/4 x 15 
1 pool = 3.75 hours or 3 hours 45 mins

Consider the system of linear equations.
Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

The system has one solution.

Both lines have the same y-intercept.

The solution is the intersection of the 2 lines.

Step-by-step explanation:

Lines are

  • 2y=x +10

       slope = 0.5

       y intercept(put x =0) =5

  • 3y =3x +15

      slope = 1

       y intercept(put x =0 ) =5

Both are linear equation thus they have only one solution. Also two non parallel lines meet only at one point.

If you solve these linear equation coordinate of  point of intersection of line on graph will come.

Write the equation y=-1/2x+3 in standard form. how do I do this?
Lapatulllka [165]
Standard form is ax + by = c.  Begin our transformation by multiplying both sides by 2 to get rid of the fraction.  Notice that ax + by = c does not allow for fractions.  Doing that multiplication gives us 2y=-x + 3.  Now move the x over by the y by addition.  x + 2y = 3.  And there you go!
