How long was each sprinkler used is 30 hours.

<h3>How long was each sprinkler used </h3>

Let x represent  how long each sprinkler was used

Hence:

40(x)+15(55-x)=1575

40x+825-15x=1575

Collect like terms

40x+-15x=1575-825

25x=750

Divide both side by 25x

x=750/25

x=30 hours

Therefore the Jenkins used the sprinklers for 30 hours while Green's used it  for 25.

Write a short speech that persuades students and parents to choose the bake-sale fundraiser instead of the car-wash fundraiser.
alexgriva [62]

Answer:

I think the bake sale would be better because, if one we're to do a car wash they may not know how to wash a car and selling baked goods is WAY easier than a car wash. A car wash can be bad depending on the weather and the bake sale. So I would chose the bake sale, it's easier, faster and much more.
