<span>Rate of pump A: 1/8 of a pool per hour
Rate of pump B: 1/9 of a pool per hour
Combined rate: 1/8+1/9 = 17/72 +1/9 = 25/72
So if they work together, the two pumps have a combined rate of 25/72 of a pool per hour (i.e in one hour, the two pumps will empty 25/72 of the pool)
</span><span>But we want to empty ONE pool (not 25/72 of one). So we need to multiply 25/72 by some number x to get 1.
</span>
<span>Now solve for x
x=2.88
</span><span>It will take the two pumps 2.88 hours to empty the pool.
2 hours 52 minutes 50 seconds</span>
Rewrite as:
4y=x^2-12x+68
divide by four:
y= x^2/4-3x+17
your answer would be
(6,8)
To find the answer, you need to round to the nearest tens. Round 142 to 140 and 1 68 to 160. You know that 1+1=2, and 6+4=10, so 200+100=300 pages read.
