Answer:

12.5 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

Make a proportion

50 gallons of water in 20 minutes, and x gallons of water in 5 minues

50/20=x/5

To solve, we need to get the variable, x, by itself. Right now, it is being divided by 5. To get rid of this, multiply both sides of the equation by 5

5(50/20)=(x/5)5

This will allow the 5s on the right to cancel, leaving us with

12.5=x

Answer

x = 7.5

Explanation

This is a case of similar triangles.
Similar triangles have bigger triangles which have sides which are multiples of smaller triangles sides.


We know that the adjacent side of the bigger triangle is 6 and for the smaller triangle it’s 4 so the constant factor by which the sides of the small triangle are multiplied to obtain the sides of the large triangle is

6/4 = 3/2

Since we know the hypotenuse of the smaller triangle is 5.

Multiply this by 3/2 to get the hypotenuse of the bigger triangle

3/2 • 5 = 7.5

Hope this helped
