Let x be the number of bears in the park during Year 1.

Given that the total number of bears in the park during Year 3 is 50, we can write the following equation:

x + (x + 5) + (x + 10) = 50
3x + 15 = 50
3x = 35
x = 35/3
x = 11.67

Therefore, there were approximately 11.67 bears in the park during Year 1.
