Answer:
It will take 2 hours, 13 minutes and 20 seconds for both pipes to fill the pool.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that an inlet pipe can fill an empty swimming pool in 5hours, and another inlet pipe can fill the pool in 4hours, to determine how long it will take both pipes to fill the pool, the following calculation must be performed:
1/5 + 1/4 = X
0.20 + 0.25 = X
0.45 = X
9/20 = X
9 = 60
2 = X
120/9 = X
13,333 = X
Therefore, it will take 2 hours, 13 minutes and 20 seconds for both pipes to fill the pool.
The scale factor of that problem would be 3in to every 1ft
The opposites are -3, -7.5, and 2 2/3

Answers:
It costs $15 for one adult
It costs $10 for one child
===========================================
Work Shown:
x = cost for one adult ticket (in dollars)
y = cost for one child ticket (in dollars)
"it costs $35 for one adult and two children" so the first equation is x+2y = 35. Solve for x to get x = -2y+35 (subtract 2y from both sides). We'll use this equation later. See the "replacement" step below.
"it costs $60 for two adults and three children" so the other equation to set up is 2x+3y = 60
Use the substitution rule to get rid of the x (replace it with something equivalent in terms of y) then isolate y
2x+3y = 60
2( x )+3y = 60
2( -2y+35 )+3y = 60 ... replace x with -2y+35
2(-2y)+2(35)+3y = 60
-4y+70+3y = 60
-y+70 = 60
-y+70-70 = 60-70
-y = -10
y = 10
Since y = 10, it costs $10 for one kid to get a ticket.
If y = 10, then x must be...
x = -2y+35
x = -2*10+35 ... replace y with 10
x = -20+35
x = 15
Since x = 15, it costs $15 for one adult ticket.
