Answer:

22

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X be the time for only a small drain, the work completed would be unity.

 The small drain has been open for a total of 11 hours, one hour next to the large one, and 10 hours alone.

We have that large drainage can accomplish this in 2 hours.

We have the following system:

1/2 + 11 / x = 1

solving, we have:

11 / x = 1 - 1/2

11 / x = 1/2

x = 11 * 2

x = 22

I mean it would take a total of 22 hours for the small drain alone

- 8x + 44 ≥ 60
- 8x ≥ 60 - 44
- 8x ≥ 16
x ≤ - 2

- 4x + 50 < 58
- 4x < 58 - 50
- 4x < 8
x > - 2

Now put the two together. Logically, these two answers since a number cannot be both less than AND greater than - 2. 

Your answer should be no solution.
