To find the initial value, we need to substitute x = 0 into the equation g = 50x + 1000.
g = 50(0) + 1000
g = 0 + 1000
g = 1000
Therefore, the initial value is 1000.
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?
