The number of gallons g in a swimming pool being filled with water is g = 50x + 1 , where is the number of hours since sunrise. It has been 10 hours since sunrise. What is the initial value? (1 point)

Question

gallons

Answer 1

To find the initial value of gallons, we need to substitute the given value of hours (10) into the equation and solve for g.

g = 50(10) + 1
g = 500 + 1
g = 501 gallons

So, the initial value is 501 gallons.
