Answer:
58.74 cubic meters
Step-by-step explanation:
The function is actually [tex]f(x)=60-0.18x[/tex]
Here x is the number of days and the corresponding value of "f(x)" would be the water REMAINING after x days.
Since, we want to figure out how much water (from 60 m^3) is remaining after 7 days, we simply have to plug in x = 7 into the function. Whatever number we get, is the AMOUNT OF WATER REMAINING AFTER 7 DAYS.
So,
[tex]f(x)=60-0.18x\\f(7)=60-0.18(7)\\=58.74[/tex]
Thus, the amount of water remaining in the pool after 7 days is 58.74 cubic meters
