Agarden hose emits 9quarts of water in six seconds at this rate how long will it take the hose to emit in 12 quarts

It will take 8 seconds.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, you would put it in ratio form (at least, that's what our class did). So 9 quarts of water in 6 seconds would be 9 quarts/6 seconds. You need to find the unit rate after that, so to find that you'd divide 9 by 6. This would give you 1.5 quarts per second.

Now all you need to do is find out what to multiply 1.5 by to be able to get to 12. The number you get will be how many seconds it takes for the hose to emit 12 quarts.

1.5 x     = 12

1.5 x 8 = 12

8 is the number of seconds it takes for the hose to emit 12 quarts of water. To write this in ratio form, it would be

12 quarts

  8 sec

(it's supposed to be written like a fraction, but there's no way to do that here.) Hope this helped!
