The speed of a fish before jumping out of the water can be represented by the equation s = 3h, where h

represents the height, in centimeters, the fish jumps out of the water and s represents the speed of the fish in

meters per second. If the fish is swimming at 15 meters per second before jumping out of the water, how high

can the fish jump?


Sagot :

Answer: The fish can jump 5m high.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

s = 3h

where

h  = the height(cm) the fish jumps out of the water

and s = speed of the fish(meters per second)  then

3 must have seconds as its unit.

Now, If the fish is swimming at 15 meters per second

Then the fish can jump =

s= 3h

15m/s =3h

h= 15m/s/3s

h= 5 meters
