To find the initial value, we need to substitute the given value of x into the equation and solve for g. Given that it has been 10 hours since sunrise, we can substitute x = 10 into the equation:
g = 50x + 1000
g = 50(10) + 1000
g = 500 + 1000
g = 1500
Therefore, the initial value of the number of gallons in the swimming pool is 1500 gallons.
The number of gallons g in a swimming pool being filled with water is g= 50x+1,000 , where x is the number of hours since sunrise. It has been 10 hours since sunrise. What is the initial value?(1 point)

Apologies for the incorrect response. To find the initial value, we need to consider the equation given:
g = 50x + 1000
If x represents the number of hours since sunrise and it has been 10 hours since sunrise, we can substitute x = 10 into the equation:
g = 50(10) + 1000
g = 500 + 1000
g = 1500
Therefore, the initial value of the number of gallons in the swimming pool is 1500 gallons.
g = 50x + 1000
If x represents the number of hours since sunrise and it has been 10 hours since sunrise, we can substitute x = 10 into the equation:
g = 50(10) + 1000
g = 500 + 1000
g = 1500
Therefore, the initial value of the number of gallons in the swimming pool is 1500 gallons.
