The garden hose at Andre's house can fill a 5-gallon bucket in 2 minutes. The hose at his next-door neighbor’s house can fill a 10-gallon bucket in 8 minutes. If they use both their garden hoses at the same time, and the hoses continue working at the same rate they did when filling a bucket, how long will it take to fill a 750-gallon pool?
1/2 + 2/8 = 150/x solvew for x (200 minutes)
one 5 gal bucket in 2 minutes = 1/5
one 10 gallon bucket in 8 min = 2/8
750 = 150 five gallon buckets
