So 2 gallons every 5 minutes
2/5= .4
so .4 a minute
and you already have 5 gallons in so those need to be added
m=minutes
y=0.4m + 5 will be what you want to find out if you are looking to find out how much will be there in a certain time
for 50 minutes you will have
y=0.4(50) +5
20+5
25 gallons
HOWEVER, the equation has to be changed if you want to tell how long you have to wait for it to fill.
m=2.5(g-5)
m=minutes
g= gallons
you subtract 5 because they are already there
you multiply by 2.5 because it fills at a rate of 1 gallon every 2.5 minutes.
m=2.5(1500-5)
for the sake of it being easier i will do the -5 separately
2.5(1500 = 3750
2.5(-5= -12.5
3750-12.5
3737.5 minutes to fill the pool.
3720/60 = 62
17.5/60 = .292
62.292 hours to fill the pool.
p.s. you have a really slow hose.
Its good you didn't wait for it to fill, you would have died from lack of water before then if you just sat and waited.

If she is making 6 costumes that need 3 7/9 yards each, the equation would be 6 x 3 7/9.
The answer to that equation would be 22 2/3.
How to get the answer:
3 x 6 = 18
7 x 6 = 42 (the seven is from the 7/9)
42/9 = 4 2/3
then add the eight teen and the 4 2/3 and you get 22 2/3.

Answer:
x≥3
Step-by-step explanation:
7x-28≥-7
Add 28 to each side
7x-28+28≥-7+28
7x≥21
Divide by 7
7x/7≥21/7
x≥3
