Answer:
The pool is being filled
Step-by-step explanation:
The function definition tells you ...
f(5) = the volume of water in the pool 5 minutes after they start
f(10) = the volume of water in the pool 10 minutes after they start
So, the inequality ...
f(5) < f(10)
means the volume of water in the pool 10 minutes after they start is greater than it is 5 minutes after they start. In short, they are filling the pool.
