Answer  ↣ 12 gallons per minute

Step-by-step explanation ↣ Ok I'm gonna use ratios because I can't draw a graph here.

Ok so if the garden hose supplies 36 gallons of water in 3 minutes, then the ratio is 36:3 because every 3 minutes the garden hose "sprays" 36 gallons.

To simplify this ratio, you need find the amount of water the garden hose supplies in 1 minute.

Well to get from 3 to 1, you have to divide by 3.

Do the same thing to 36. 36/3 equals 12.

So the final ratio is 12:1

This is the unit rate. The unit rate is when one variable is 1 unit (most of the time it is speed).

You can multiply 1 by any number and multiply 12 by the same number.

Here are some ratios...

m=minutes

g=gallons

1m:12g

2m:24g

3m:36g

4m:48g

5m:60g

Hope this helped!

BTW why do I sound like this I'm not a aesthetic person-

What is the area of this polygon?
ra1l [238]
Step 1) Draw a line from point F to point S. A rectangle forms (rectangle FSCW)

Step 2) Find the area of this rectangle. The area is 18 square units because it is 2 units high and 9 units across (9*2 = 18). You can count out the spaces or you can note how we go from x = -4 to x = 5 so subtracting the values gives -4-5 = -9 which has an absolute value of 9. 

Step 3) Find the area of triangle FSN. The base is 9 units and the height is 6 units (count out the spaces or subtract y values). So the area is A = b*h/2 = 9*6/2 = 54/2 = 27

Step 4) Add up the area of the rectangle to the area of the triangle: 18+27 = 45

Final Answer: 45 square units

note: another way to find the answer is to find the area of rectangle WABC where point A is at (-4,4) and point B is at (5,4). Then subtract off the triangular areas of AFN and BNS
