An electric motor pumps water into a pool at a rate of 500 liters per hour. After a tune up, its rate increases by x liters per hour. If the motor now takes 3 hours to pump 1800 liters, in which equation does x represent the increase in speed after the tune up?

Answer:

The equation can be (500 + x)L/h

or

The New speed of the motor = 600L/h

Step-by-step explanation:

Speed = distance/time

In this case, Speed = Litres/hour

The earlier speed of the motor = 500L/h

The speed is increased by x L/h

So the new speed can be expressed as (500 + x) L/h

or

The New speed of the motor = 1800L/3h or 600L/h
