Answer:
The water level is falling.
The initial level of water in the pool was 3,500 units
The water was 2,600 units high after 4 hours.
Step-by-step explanation:
The given function that models the water level is
where represents time in hours.
The function represents a straight line that has slope
Since the slope is negative, it means the water level is falling.
The initial level of water in the pool can found when we put into the function.
, hence the initial level is 3,500.
To determine the level of water in the pool after 14 hours, we put into the equation to get;
To determine the water level after 4 hours we put
Like terms must have the same variables and those variables must have the same powers.
and
are like terms, because they both have
and they both have
.
and
are NOT like terms, because the powers no longer match.
In your example, do you have the same variables and do the variables have the same powers in both expressions?
