What will it look like

Awater truck is filling a swimming pool. the equation that represents this relationship is y=19.75x where y is the number of gallons of water in the pool and x is the number of minutes the truck has been filling the pool.

Given that y varies directly to the square root of (x + 1), and that y = 1 when x = 8,(a)express y in terms of .x,(b)find the value of y when x = 3,(c)find the value of x when y = 5.

How many 3/8s are in 6 plz someone tell me now
