The two faucets release water into the sink at constant but different rates when turned on, and the drain removes water from the sink at a constant rate when opened. It takes $5$ minutes to fill the sink (from empty to full) when the drain is open and only the red faucet is on, it takes $10$ minutes to fill the sink when the drain is open and only the blue faucet is on, and it takes $15$ seconds to fill the sink when both faucets are on and the drain is closed.
