Two hoses are used to fill a swimming pool. Together they fill the pool at a rate of 3 gallons every 5 seconds. An equation representing this isg=35t, where t is the time in seconds and g is the number of gallons. About how many hours will it take to fill the pool if it holds 80,000 gallons?

option a is correct.

step-by-step explanation:

scale factor: it is used to find proportional measurements.

proportions means having the same ratio.

scale factor is the ratio of the model measurement to the actual measurement in a simplest form.

or we can say that the ratio of any two corresponding lengths in two similar geometric figures

if the scale factor is more than 1, then it is an enlargement,

if the scale factor less than 1, then it is a reduction.

given the two geometric figure:

by definition of proportions, we have
