The correct answer is B.

See diagram

EXPLANATION

Let us choose zero to be our reference point. That is zero is representing the surface of the pool.

Since

-\frac{1}{6}>-\frac{4}{6}

Or

-\frac{4}{6}

-\frac{1}{6}

will be closer to zero.

We were told that

-\frac{1}{6}

is where the boy's feet are. Therefore his feet are closer to the surface of the pool than the girl's feet.

So the correct answer is

the second option

–t + 9t − 12t − –16t − 18t = –6
-Dominant- [34]
-t + 9t - 12t - (-16t) - 18t = -6
-t + 9t - 12t + 16t - 18t = -6
-6t = -6
-6t/-6 = -6/-6 (-6 on the left side cancels out so we are only left with T and our answer)
T = 1
