Answer:

12 minutes.

Explanation:

IN order to solve this we have to create an equation, as you can see both water hoses have a different rate of filling up the pool, one is 20 minutes and the other one is 30 minutes so, both are open the same time, so they will share time, and the total amount will be described as 1, since that is the amount of pools they are filling up:

\frac{1}{t} =\frac{1}{20} +\frac{1}{30} \\\frac{1}{t} =\frac{5}{60}=\frac{1}{12}

So the rate at wich the pool will fill up will be 12 minutes.
