the number of gallons g in a swimming pool being filled with water is g=50x+1000 where x is the number of hours since sunrise it has been 10 hours since sunrise whats the initial value?

1 answer

To find the initial value of the number of gallons in the pool, we need to substitute x=0 into the equation:

g = 50(0) + 1000

g = 0 + 1000

g = 1000

Therefore, the initial value of the number of gallons in the pool is 1000 gallons.
