Answer:
Garden hose water flow in gallons per minute(x:y) = 12:1
Minutes per gallon water flow(y:x) = 1:12
Step-by-step explanation:
Complete question below
A garden hose supplies 36 gallons of water in 3 minutes. Use a table of equivalent ratios to show the garden hose's water flow in gallons per minute and minutes per gallon.
Let
the garden hose water flow=x
Time of glow=y
x:y=36 gallons : 3 minutes
x/y=36/3
x/y=12/1
x:y=12:1
Therefore, garden hose water flow in gallons per minute is given by
x:y = 12:1
Minutes per gallon water flow
y:x=3:36
y/x=3/36
y/x = 1/12
y:x = 1:12
Therefore, minutes per gallon water flow is given by
y:x = 1:12
Table of equivalent ratio for x:y
36:3
24:2
12:1
Table of equivalent ratio for y:x
