In the current setup, the water park uses gallons of water, and the new ride would use an additional gallons of water.
To find the total gallons of water used after the new ride is installed, we add these two quantities:
gallons + gallons = gallons
Expressing this in scientific notation where gallons is equal to x in scientific notation:
x + x = x
Therefore, the total gallons of water used in the park after the new ride is installed is x gallons in scientific notation.
