Question

Initially a pool contains 350 gallons of water. A hose is placed in the pool and the water is turned on. The hose adds 5.2 gallons of water per minute. Model the total amount, V, of water in the pool for x, the number of minutes the hose has been on.
A
V(x) = 5.2x
B
V(x) = 350x - 5.2
C
V(x) = 350x + 5.2
D
V(x) = 5.2x + 350

Answer 1

The answer is D because to get the total amount of water from the hose in x minutes, you would have to multiply the gallons per minute with the amount of minutes, or x, and so you would have 5.2x. But, we have to include the existing water in the pool. So, we would get V(x) = 5.2x + 350
