A 28,000-gallon swimming pool is being drained using a pump that empties 700 gallons per hour. Which equation models this situation if g is the number of gallons remaining in the pool and t is the amount of time in hours the pool has been draining? 28,000 = –700t 28,000g = –700t g = 700t – 28,000 g = 28,000 – 700t

Answer:

g = 28,000 - 700t

Step-by-step explanation:

This solution reads, in words,

"the amount of water remaining in the pool is equal to 28,000 gallons minus 700 gallons per hour", which is what your situation is asking you.  You start with 28,000 gallons and are pumping out (subtracting) 700 gallons per hour.

g is what remains

Answer: [tex]g=28000-700t[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A 28,000-gallon swimming pool is being drained using a pump that empties 700 gallons per hour.

i.e, Remaining gallons = 28,000- 700 × Number of hours.

Let g be the number of gallons remaining in the pool and t is the amount of time in hours the pool has been draining.

Then, the equation models this situation  will be :-

[tex]g=28000-700t[/tex]
