The number of gallons g in a swimming pool being filled with water g=50x+1000 where x is the number of hours since sunrise it has been 10 hours since sunrise what is the initial value
The initial value in this context refers to the number of gallons present in the swimming pool at the beginning, when x is equal to 0 (since x represents the number of hours since sunrise).
To find the initial value, we substitute x = 0 into the equation:
g = 50x + 1000
g = 50(0) + 1000
g = 0 + 1000
g = 1000
Therefore, the initial value is 1000 gallons.
