Can someone please help me with only one problem?

A pool is filling with water at a rate of 45 gallons every 5 minutes.

- Another spigot can fill the pool at a rate of 16 gallons every 2 minutes. Does this spigot fill at a faster rate? Explain.

Respuesta :

Answer:

No, this spigot doesn't fill at a faster rate.

Step-by-step explanation:

The first spigot can fill a pool with 9 gallons of water in a minute. Whereas the second spigot can only fill a pool with 8 gallons of water in a minute. Therefore, the second spigot fills at a faster rate.
