Two hoses attached to separate water sources are available to fill a cyindrical swimming pool. If both hoses are used , the time it will take to fill the pool can be represented by the following equation : (1)/(T _(1))+(1)/(T_(2))=(1)/(T_(c)) , where T_(1) and T_(2) represent the time needed for hoses 1 and 2 , respectively , to fill the pool on their own , and T_(c) represents the time needed for hoses 1 and 2 to fill the pool working together . IF hose 1 alone can fill the pool in exactly 20 minutes and hose 2 alone can fill the pool in exactly 60 minutes , how many minutes will it take to fill the pool if both hoses work simultaneously ?
