One hose can fill the pond in 30 minutes, which means every minute it fills 1/30 of the pond.
the second hose can fill the pond in x minutes, which means every minute it fills 1/x portion of the pond.
together it fills the WHOLE pond in 21 minutes: 21/30 +21/x=1
21/x=1- 21/30=9/30=3/10
x=70
5 I think.

Step-by-step explanation:
x - 14 < -23
x < -9
A: to find rate of change you take the smallest rate:
2 bushels/$15 and divide both by 2 so that you get 1 bushel and $15/2=$7.5, therefor 1 bushel/$7.50.
B:The current year is at 2 bushels/$16 or 1 bushel/$8, which is $.50 more than the previous year.
