The Morgan family and the Collins family each used their sprinklers last summer. The Morgan family's sprinkler was used for 35 hours. The Collins family's sprinkler was used for 40 hours. There was a combined total output of 1725 L of water. What was the water output rate for each sprinkler if the sum of the two rates was 45 L per hour?
