How old is the aqueduct at nimes?

The most accurate answer to your question would be "as long as it took". The time spent on constructing an aqueduct depended upon its length, and type and the terrain it had to cover. The Romans were highly efficient builders and organizers and the military did most of the building of the aqueducts, roads, bridges, etc. As most aqueducts were under ground, it was basically a matter of digging and lining and the project could be finished very quickly. The above ground aqueducts took slightly more time as the arches and supports had to be constructed.

Is it 1 inch every 50 ft in the grading in the aqueducts?

The gradient recommended for the channel of the conduit by Vitruvius in his textbook on architecture and engineering was 1 in 4,800. That works out as 1 inch every 4,000 feet. The gradient of the Pont du Gard bridge of the Nimes aqueduct is 3.4:10,000.
