Answer:

T = 600 + 25m

Step-by-step explanation:

Initially, there are 600 gallons in the tank.

Then, we add 25 gallons per minute. it means that after m minutes, the tank has 25*m gallons.

So, the algebraic expression is the sum of the initial number of gallons and the number of gallons that we add every minute, then:

T = 600 + 25m

Where T is the number of gallons in the tank
