Answer:
A.
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope = y2-y1/x2-x1
(2,-4) = (x1,y1)
(4,2) = (x2,y2)
Slope = (2+4)/(4-2)
= 6/2
= 3
Y=mx+b [Plugging (4,2) into this]
2 = 3×4 +b
2 = 12 + b
b = -10
The large hose fills 1 pool in 9 hours written as 1/9
The small hose fills 1 pool in 18 hours, written as 1/18
Now you have 1/9 + 1/18 = 1/x ( x is the unknown time for both hoses).
rewrite 1/9 with a common denominator as 1/18:
1/9 = 2/18
Now you have 2/18 + 1/18 = 1/x
Add the left side:
2/18 + 1/18 = 3/18
Now you have 3/18 = 1/x
Cross Multiply:
3x = 18
Divide both sides by 3"
x = 18/3
X = 6
It will take both hoses 6 hours.
