(x+3)/((x+4)+3)=5/6
(x+3)/(x+7)=5/6
6(x+3)=5(x+7)
6x+18=5x+35
x=35-18
x=17
17/(17+4)=17/21

how long will it take for the pool to completely fill with water? (explain why so i understand) it’s a 120 gallon pool
zhannawk [14.2K]
First, you find out how much can be filled in 1 minute. Then you divide that into 120 to get your answer. 

To find out how much can be filled in 1 minute, take the time and divide it into the volume. We'll use the second row (2 minutes and 8 gallons.)

8/2=4. So it takes 1 minute to fill 4 gallons. Now, you just divide 4 into 120. 

120/4=30

It takes 30 minutes to fill the pool up to 120 gallons.
