The table shows the amount of water left in a pool over time as it is being drained. the table represents a linear function. time (h) water (gal) 0 | 18,500 1 | 17,000 2 | 15,500 3 | 14,000 what does the initial value mean for this function? after 3 hours, 14,000 gallons of water remain in the pool. after 2 hours, 15,500 gallons of water have been drained from the pool. the pool contains 18,500 gallons of water before it is drained. water drains from the pool at a rate of 1500 gallons each hour.

C. The pool contains 18,500 gallons of water before it is drained.

Step-by-step explanation:

The table shows the amount of water left in a pool, in gallons, over time, in hours, as it is being drained.

Time (h)Water (gal)

   0            18,500

   1             17,000

   2            15,500

   3            14,000

This table represents a linear function.

The initial value of the table is,

As here, time is 0 hours i.e at starting of the experiment, the water in the tank was 18,500 gallons.

Therefore, the initial value represents the amount of water before it is drained.

answer:   28.56 feet (approx)

step-by-step explanation:

since, triangle abc has measure of angle c equal to 55 degrees, measure of angle abc equal to 90 degrees, and length of bc equal to 20 feet.

we have to find out the measurement of segment ab.

therefore, tan 55° =

but bc = 20 feet.

⇒ tan 55 ° =  

⇒ ab = 20 × tan 55 °

⇒ ab = 20 × 1.42814800674

⇒ ab = 28.5629601348   ≈ 28.56 feet
