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.

1) V(x) = 5.2x - 350

2) V(x) = 5.2x + 350

3) V(x) = 350x - 5.2

4) V(x) = 350x + 5.2

the answer is v(x)=5.2x-350 cause 350 is the total amount of gallons of water the pool can hold and the pool already has 5.2x so you will have to subtract 5.2 from 350
