To find the initial value of \( g \), we can plug \( x = 0 \) into the equation \( g = 50x + 1,000 \).
Substituting \( x = 0 \):
\[ g = 50(0) + 1,000 = 1,000 \]
Thus, the initial value is:
\[ \text{Initial value} = 1,000 \text{ gallons} \]
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)
