A carp is swimming approximately 8 1/4 beneath the water surface and a sunfish is swimming approximately 3 1/2 feet beneath the water surface. Which fish is swimming farther beneath the water surface?

The carp

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are simply asked to find which depth is greater.

For the carp, it is swimming at a distance of 8 1/4 ft beneath the water. Now since 1/4 is same as 0.25, this means she is swimming at a depth of 8.25 below the water.

For the sunfish, it is swimming at a depth of 3 1/2 ft. 1/2 is same is 0.5. This means she is swimming at a depth of 3.5 ft

Obviously we can see that 8.25 is greater than 3.5 so we say that the carp is swimming at a farther distance beneath the water surface

it is probably the graph on the bottom right.

problem:

f(x) = - 2/3x + 5; f(5/2)

substitute 5/2 in for x:

f(5/2) = -2/3(5/2) + 5

simplify the right side:

f(5/2) = -5/3 + 5

f(5/2) = 10/3

f(5/2) = 10/3

i hope this !
