Answer: Fish A: 9 inches ; Fish B: 6 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

This can be turned into a systems of equation, where x equals the length of fish A and y equals the length of fish B:

3x + 2y = 39 → -3x - 2y = -39

3x + 4y = 51 → 3x +4y = 51

Combine: 0 + 2y = 12 → y = 6 inches.

Plug back in: 3x + 2(6) = 39 → 3x = 27 → x = 9 inches.

When there is a dotted line it means its either this symbol < or this one >. The y-intercept is 25. Now go up 4 spaces and one space to the left that is your slope. We call that "Rise over Run". So the last choice is your final answer.
I hope this helps love! :)
