Bumek [7]

Answer:

The Trout will have to jump 49 cm in order to catch the insect

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to calculate the distance the Trout has to jump in order to catch the Insect

To calculate this, we need to know the difference in the distances

From what we have, the Trout is 32 cm below the surface while the Insect is 17 cm above the surface of the lake

The difference in height which will represent the distance that the Trout has to jump to catch the insect will be ;

17 + 32 = 49 cm

<h3>3 Answers: Choice D, Choice E, Choice F</h3>

============================================================

Explanation:

The inequality 6x - 10y ≥ 9 solves to y ≤ (3/5)x - 9/10 when you isolate y.

Graph the line y = (3/5)x - 9/10 and make this a solid line. The boundary line is solid due to the "or equal to" as part of the inequality sign. We shade below the boundary line because of the "less than" after we isolated for y.

Now graph all of the points given as I've done so in the diagram below. The points in the blue shaded region, or on the boundary line, are part of the solution set. Those points are D, E and F.

We can verify this algebraically. For instance, if we weren't sure point E was a solution or not, we would plug the coordinates into the inequality to get...

6x - 10y ≥ 9

6(5) - 10(2) ≥ 9 .... plug in (x,y) = (5,2)

30 - 20 ≥ 9

10 ≥ 9 ... this is a true statement

Since we end up with a true statement, this verifies point E is one of the solutions. I'll let you check points D and F.

-----------

I'll show an example of something that doesn't work. Let's pick on point A.

We'll plug in (x,y) = (-1,1)

6x - 10y ≥ 9

6(-1) - 10(1) ≥ 9

-6 - 10 ≥ 9

-16 ≥ 9

The last inequality is false because -16 is smaller than 9. So this shows point A is not a solution. Choices B and C are non-solutions for similar reasons.
