Let the number of water pumps be n and the time taken to fill the pool is t.
Now, we can see that higher the number of water pumps, lesser the time to fill the pool.
It means quantities vary indirectly.
Thus, 
Now, we have been given that It takes four identical water pumps 6 hours to fill a pool.
Thus, we have

Hence, constant of variation is 24.
Now, we have to find the time that three pumps will take to fill the same pool.

Hence, it will take 8 hours to fill the pool by three identical pumps.
Answer: 12 1/2 years
Step-by-step explanation:
If the salary doubling in currency, it would need a 100% raise. Simply divide 100% by 8% to get the number of years needed.
100 / 8 = 12.5 or 12 1/2
8% of 25,000 = 2,000
25,000 / 2,000 = 12.5 or 12 1/2
The answer would be y= 2/5x because 5-3 =2 so you put that on top and 13-8 =5 and you put that on bottom
Answer:
3 halves are in 3/2.
Step-by-step explanation:
The numerator says that there are 3 pieces, and the denominator says the pieces are halves. Therefore, there are three halves.

<u>Answer:</u>
<u>Solution:</u>
-x - 6y = -23
<u>Now, let's substitute the value of y into the first equation.</u>
- x + 4y = 17
- => x + 4(3) = 17
- => x + 12 = 17
- => x = 5
<u>Let's check our answer to make sure it is correct.</u>
<u>Check:</u>
- -x - 6y = -23
- => -(5) - 6(3) = -23
- => -5 - 18 = -23
- => -23 = -23
Hence, this is proven correct.
Hoped this helped.
